The National Harmonised Traders Union of Nigeria has called on its
members across the country to ignore the planned strike by Labour
unions.
The President of the union, Alhaji Bature Abdul’Aziz, made the call while briefing newsmen in Kano on Monday.
Abdul’Aziz said the call was necessary following a meeting of the National leaders of the union in Kano on Saturday.
He said: “We are calling on all traders across the country not to join the planned strike by the labour unions.
“This is our stand and it is part of the resolutions we reached at our meeting held in Kano on Saturday.”
According to Abdul’Aziz, the union has also directed its leaders in
the 36 states of the federation to convey the message to their
respective members.
The president said the union would continue to
support government policies and programmes that were aimed at promoting
development in the country.
He, however, called on the Federal
Government and the labour unions to embrace dialogue for an amicable
resolution of the dispute.
He also called on Nigerians,
irrespective of their religious or political inclinations, to support
the Federal Government in its efforts to develop the country.
