We will embark on an indefinite nationwide strike in 72 hours if… — NAFDAC workers tell FG

Employees of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), which oversees health and food regulation, have issued a 72-hour strike notice to the federal government, citing anti-worker practices.

Leadership reports that the workers vowed to embark on the nationwide strike from October 7, 2024 if their demands are not met.

According to the General Secretary of the in-house union, Comrade Salih Ahmed Aledeh, the strike action follows the expiration of a 14-day ultimatum issued earlier given to NAFDAC management to address their demands.

‘’In a significant development affecting Nigeria’s public health sector, workers at the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) will commence an indefinite strike starting October 7, 2024.

The strike action follows the expiration of a 14-day ultimatum issued to NAFDAC management, which failed to address concerns raised by the agency’s branch of the Medical and Health Workers’ Union of Nigeria.

The strike which will commence at 00:01 hours on October 7, 2024, was initiated after NAFDAC management failed to respond to issues raised in a communique from a congress meeting held on September 20,” Aledeh said.

The strike directive was issued by the leadership of the Federal Area Council of the Medical and Health Workers’ Union of Nigeria. As a result, all NAFDAC staff have been instructed to participate in the strike.
