Good afternoon distinguished Comrades. Arising from the join NEC Meeting of NLC /TUC a few minutes ago ,it was resolved as follows
- Agreement was reached to allow for engagement with Government for negotiation beyond 60k as against Government initial frozen position of 60k
- That the time-line of 2months initially tendered by Government has been shortened to one week by Organized Labour to allow for speedy conclusion on the new minimum wage.
- That both NECs in session unanimously agreed to Relax the strike action to pave way for continuous negotiation which is a new lexicon in the Labour Movement .
- Failure on the part of Government to conclude with Labour within one week shall prompt the Organised Labour to resume the strike without further notice .
- The strike is relaxed till you hear from the Organised Labour. Work resumes tomorrow.
