Don't go on strike, Nkire begs Labour unions.

A member of the National Caucus of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief Sam Nkire, said that his party sees the organised labour as partners in progress for the development of Nigeria’s economy. Chief Nkire, who reacted yesterday to the threat of strike issued by the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), in particular, appealed to the labour unions to shelve their planned strike due to increase in petrol price. The APC chieftain, who said everyone was feeling the pinch of the fuel price increase, described the measure as “a bitter pill we must all swallow for things to get better.” He appealed to Nigerians to give President Muhammadu Buhari a chance to govern, and stop constituting themselves as clog in the wheel of progress.
