The organised labour in Cross River says it is set for an industrial action over the non-implementation of the new minimum wage in the state.
The chairman of Trade Union Congress, TUC, in the state, Mr Monday Ogbodum, said this on Saturday in Calabar.
Recall the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, had fixed Sunday midnight for the commencement of the strike if the state government failed to implement the new minimum wage of N70, 000.
Ogbodum said except the Cross River government implements the new wage regime, there would be no going back on the industrial action.
According to him, the negotiation with the state government was still in progress. However, he said that will not stop them from joining the strike if the need arises.
