The leadership of National Union of Road Transport Workers, NURTW, today directed her members Nationwide to embark on the strike action being proposed by the Organized labour to drive home their demand for minimum wage.
The Delta State NURTW Chairman, Chief Comrade Ifeanyi Obi, confirmed the position of the national leadership to newsmen in Asaba.
Obi said all motor parks are to remain closed in total adherence to the directive from the National Chairman of the Union.
Obi said this is in solidarity to the plight of the Nigerian Workers in demanding for a minimum wage of N30, 000.00 as against N22,500.00 as proposed by the federal government.
It would be recalled that the organized labour such as the NLC and TUC have directed all their members to proceed on an indefinite strike until their demand are met by the federal government as against a Court injunction restraining her from embarking on further strikes.
