Public sector unions in Nigeria, operating under the aegis of the Joint National Public Service Negotiating Council (JNPSNC), have directed all federal, state, and local government employees to begin a three-day warning strike nationwide. The directive applies to all staff members, including those working within ministries, departments, and agencies (MDAs).

The nationwide industrial action is framed around the prevailing economic hardship faced by workers across the country. By mobilizing government personnel across all three tiers of administration, the labor action aims to pressure authorities regarding JNPSNC's demands.

The strike commenced today, disrupting public administration and government services nationwide as employees down tools in response to the union directive.
