Minister of Labor, Chris Ngige, says according to the laws of the land,
anyone participating in an illegal strike is liable to a N100k fine or
six months jail term. He said this while speaking with newsmen at the
end of the Federal Executive Council meeting in Abuja yesterday May
18th. He said:
"If you embark on a strike that is illegal, if you don't give 15 days
notice especially if you are a member of essential service, you will be
liable to a fine of N100, 000 or six months in jail. If we invoke it
now they will say this is a ruthless government but they(labor) are
going outside the law.
This is a change government and we want to bring everybody on board into a peace and orderly process".
