The indefinite strike called by the national leadership of the Nigerian Labour Congress has grounded activities at the Nigerian parliament, the National Assembly.
According to reports, the three gates to the National Assembly were only partially accessible as the strike commenced, while on Wednesday, all the gates were locked by officials of the Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria on the orders of the NLC.
The lawmakers who arrived the premises were shocked to realize that all entrances to the National Assembly Complex were barricaded.
