The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has taken fresh legal steps to have striking workers of the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) committed to prison for ignoring a court order. As part of the process, a legal notice known as Form 48 has been issued against the striking workers. The judge held that once a labour dispute is brought before the National Industrial Court, all industrial actions must stop until the matter is resolved. Despite being served with the court order, the workers reportedly resumed their industrial action four days later. They argued that filing an appeal does not automatically suspend the effect of a court order.
