Oyo state workers begin 3 day warning strike

According to recent reports, workers in Oyo State, Nigeria, have embarked on a 3-day warning strike to protest the non-payment of their salaries and other grievances. The strike, which began on Monday, is expected to last until Wednesday.

The workers, who are members of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC), are demanding the payment of their outstanding salaries, which they claim have been delayed for several months. They are also seeking the implementation of the new minimum wage and the resolution of other issues affecting their working conditions.

The strike has caused disruptions to public services in the state, including the closure of government offices, schools, and hospitals. The state government has been urged to address the workers' concerns and resolve the strike as soon as possible to minimize the impact on the public.

It's worth noting that this is not the first time that workers in Oyo State have gone on strike to protest their working conditions and demands. In recent years, there have been several strikes and protests by workers in the state, highlighting the ongoing challenges faced by public sector workers in Nigeria.
