The Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), Rivers State chapter, has ordered all civil servants in the state to sit at home if the fuel and naira scarcities persist on Monday.
The state NLC chairperson, Beatrice Itubo, issued the threat ON Sunday evening.
Itubo, who is also the governorship candidate of the Labour Party in Rivers State, expressed sadness that the workers salaries which she described as static could no longer bear the high cost of transport.
Itubo further said the current economic situation in the country had made a mincemeat of workers pay, saying that the suffering was no longer acceptable.
She further stated that anyone or organisation who queries or sack any worker who observes the sit-at-home declared will have the NLC Rivers State Council to contend with.
