The Organized Labor Union, following a meeting with President Bola Tinubu, has postponed its statewide strike action less than 24 hours after announcing protests against the elimination of fuel subsidy.

The NLC and TUC have reportedly started a national strike yesterday to enforce some of their demands against the elimination of fuel subsidies, according to Vanguard.
