NIMC Workers Suspend Strike, To Resume Enrolment On Monday

Workers of the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC),
have suspended the industrial action which they embarked on, on
Thursday over poor allowances and the fear of exposure to COVID-19
spread in the agency.

One of the workers had told our correspondent that the recent
increase in the number of visitors at their office for registration
of NIN had caused a lot of stress for them.

But they have now decided to put the strike on hold after a
meeting with the Federal Government, where it was agreed that the
demands of the employees would be addressed.

The President of the Association of Senior Civil Servants of
Nigeria, NIMC unit, Asekokhai Lucky, confirmed the suspension of
the industrial action saying workers of the commission across the
country will be contacted to resume work by Monday and proceed with
the enrolment of Nigerians for their National Identity Numbers.
