Just in: NLC directs workers to shut down CBN offices nationwide over naira scarcity

The leadership of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) on Wednesday directed all workers to picket all the offices of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) nationwide with effect from next week over the current cash crunch in the country.

The directive was given by the NLC President, Joe Ajaero, at an ongoing press briefing at the Labour House in Abuja.

Ajaero said the directive became imperative following the expiration of a one-week ultimatum given to the apex bank to make cash available for Nigerians.

He also directed that affiliate unions constituting the NLC should also be on standby for picketing exercise across all branches of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) nationwide.
