Maritime Activities Grounded in Apapa Port Over NLC Strike

By Obiabin Onukwugha

The Nigerian Maritime and Blue Economy sector was crippled on Tuesday as the Maritime Workers Union of Nigeria (MWUN), shutdown economic activities at both Apapa and Tin-Can Island seaports in Lagos State.

The workers picketed offices and restrained people from accessing their offices, thereby grounding economic activities at the ports as a result of a nation-wide strike declared by the Organised Labour in Nigeria.

The picketing of the ports is in compliance with the directive given by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) for a total shutdown of the country’s economy.

The decision to commence the strike was unanimously agreed after a meeting of the National Executive Council (NEC) of Labour in Abuja, recently.
