After months of waiting by the federal government and organized labour for the meeting slated for October 15, to negotiate and reach an agreement on the Consequential Adjustment of salaries of level 7 to 17 with regards to the new minimum wage, the meeting which was to be held in Abuja, however hit deadlock as no agreement was arrived at by the Federal Government and labour.

This development and unsettled scores between the federal government and labour today was because the organized labour leaders failed to turn up for the meeting and talk showdown.

This development means that, the planned October 16 strike ordered by labour nationwide to its state structures will hold. This is because labour had already directed its members nationwide to be gearing for strike once no agreement was arrived at in a communique to its state structures.
