On Tuesday, National Assembly employees under the auspices of the Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria called off their strike.
The workers began their strike on the previous Monday, crippling National Assembly operations for a week.
Sunday Sabiyi, chairman of PASAN’s National Assembly chapter, addressed the members at the gate on Tuesday and informed them that the strike would be suspended until further notice.
He said, “Our National President has spoken and we have heard, they said by July, we would get approval and complete the implementation and the allowances would be paid by the end of June.
“The Senate President said after the allowances have been paid by June ending, he would call for a town hall meeting. If he doesn’t call for the town hall meeting, we will call for another strike action.
“For this reason, we have suspended the strike action for now. So, everybody should go and rest, have your bathe and resume the day’s activities.”
