The Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) strike in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), is facing challenges with partial enforcement, according to multiple reports. The NLC declared an indefinite strike on October 7, citing alleged career stagnation of teachers in the FCT, among other issues. However, it appears not all workers have joined the strike, with some reports indicating that only partial enforcement has been observed. The NLC ordered Abuja workers to begin the indefinite strike in a showdown with Governor Wike, according to the Peoples Gazette Nigeria. The Daily Post Nigeria also reported the NLC’s declaration of an indefinite strike in the FCT. The Tribune Online reported that the NLC began an indefinite strike in Abuja over the alleged career stagnation of teachers. It is unclear why only partial enforcement of the strike is being reported, and the NLC has not commented on the matter. The ongoing strike could have significant implications for the FCT, as it is home to many federal government employees and institutions.
