The Chairman of the Joint Union Action Committee (JUAC), Riftkatu Iortyer, and Secretary, Abdullahi Saleh, have filed an application at the Court of Appeal in Abuja seeking leave to challenge the ruling of the National Industrial Court which restrained them from embarking or participating in any industrial action.
Recall that FCTA workers began an indefinite strike last week over “authorities’ failure to address long-standing labour and welfare demands”.
However on Tuesday, a National Industrial Court in Abuja ordered workers on the payroll of the FCTA to suspend the strike.
In response, the union leaders have filed an application to stay the execution of the ruling of the National Industrial Court, pending the determination of the appeal.
