The Acting General Secretary of Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Mr Chris Uyot, gave the commendation in an interview in Abuja, said that it was needful for all hands to be on deck to effectively tackle the Ebola virus currently affecting the country.

 “We want to commend the NMA for suspending its strike at this trial moment.

“All hands should now be on deck to ensure that this current health challenge is eradicated

“We want to appreciate the Federal Government for the proactive measures in making sure that every issue was resolved.

“I do not know what the terms are for the suspension but the good thing is that the strike is now suspended and the sector can move forward’’.

The NLC acting secretary Uyot said that the NLC was not part of the negotiation that led to the suspension of the strike because the NMA is not an affiliate of the congress.

Meanwhile, the Joint Health Sector Union has maintained that the NMA strike was illegal, selfish and uncalled for.
