advertisementThe Chairman of the Joint Union Action Committee (JUAC), Riftkatu Iortyer, and its Secretary, Abdullahi Saleh, have approached the Court of Appeal, Abuja, seeking leave to challenge the interlocutory ruling of the National Industrial Court restraining them and their members from embarking on industrial action. The industrial action led to the shutdown of activities across major government offices in Abuja. However, on Tuesday, the National Industrial Court ordered workers on the payroll of the FCTA to suspend the strike. He ruled that once a dispute is referred to the National Industrial Court, any ongoing strike must cease pending the determination of the case. Reacting to the court order, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, warned that any FCTA worker who failed to resume work would face sanctions.
