Muslims Say No To NLC, TUC Strike: It's ill-timed due to Salah - MURIC by BeeBeeOoh(m): 1:59pm On Jun 03
The Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) is set to begin its industrial action today Monday, 3rd June, 2024. But there is no scintilla of doubt that the strike will make life unbearable for Muslims preparing for Id al-kabiir (Salah) which is just a few days away.

As expected, the workers unions of other service providing sectors like petroleum and electricity have offered to join (https://www.thecable.ng/oil-electricity-workers-to-join-planned-labour-strike/). This means the lives of Nigerians are likely to be thrown into a state of higgledy-piggledy in the next few days.

But what does NLC think will happen to Muslims whose festival of Id al-kabiir is already knocking on the door? Transport fare to and fro their various destinations will skyrocket. Movements will be so adversely affected that the whole Salah period will become a horrendous experience. Is that what NLC wants?

The notice of strike was too short. It was given from the negotiation table and it was 48 hours or less. The approach of the current crop of NLC leaders is aggressive, arrogant, fascist and partisan. The body language is unmistakable. It is directed at bringing government down. This NLC has no respect for the rule of law, not even an iota of decorum for democratic practices.

If we cannot speak for government, what about Nigerian Muslims whose lives your strike could turn into sheer nightmare? Is this a deliberate attempt to make life uncomfortable for Muslims? Will NLC declare strike one week to Christmas? Or is this about bringing down our Muslim-Muslim ticket? Is this part of the ‘religious war’ of ‘Yes Daddy’?

Are Muslim workers not part of your union? If we are, shouldn’t NLC consider our interest, particularly our fast-approaching festival before embarking on a strike? What happened to strategic planning? What happened to timing and logistics? What happened to psychological preparation of people’s minds?

By the way, every civilized group checks the calendar when planning an event and every calendar shows festivals of the year, is there no calendar on the walls of NLC office or was it deliberately ignored because NLC leadership is more interested in inflicting pains on Nigerian Muslims?

Who did NLC leadership consult before declaring strike and what did they advice? Are there no Muslims among members of NLC executive? Are there no Muslims among NLC’s advisers or are they all ‘Yes Daddy’? If there are, are they conscious Muslims or just Muslims by name? Are they not aware that Salah is next week?

This strike is ill-timed. It is a recipe for a topsy-turvy Salah. We advise NLC to postpone it till after the Salah. If NLC rejects our advice and goes ahead with its satanic strike, we will ask all Muslim workers who know that they will meet Allah yaom al-Qiyaamah (The Last Day) not to cooperate with NLC. They should reject the strike because it is an assault on the religion of Islam.

We call on all Muslim leaders and Islamic organisations in Nigeria to speak up now before it is too late. We must reject the tyranny of Muslim-haters thinly veiled in unionism. We say ‘No To Strike in Salah.’”

Muslims in Nigeria have their exclusive salaries from Tinubu and they have a special market where they buy food from, cheaper than the rest of the citizens

The terrorist group MURIC and their supporters at it again. MURIC asked their members to only vote for a Yoruba Muslims in the last election. They hate a Yoruba Christian and are very vocal against the administration of any Christian. However, MURIC has never condemned this administration that has put a huge burden on Nigeria with unimaginable currency devaluation and high inflation. Yet this government refused to increase minimum wage. MURIC refused to condemn this government because it is run by Muslim_Muslim. People are unable to feed, including Muslims. MURIC has never shared any palliative to Muslims. They're only concerned about Salah.
The greatest affliction affecting Nigeria is the mixing of Christian and Muslim. Christians deserve their country and Muslims their own.

This one has crawled out from his dungeon.

Is that the tactics they want to employ now? Use religious sentiments to divide and disrupt the ongoing industrial action. grin grin

As if the muslims can afford a decent Eid-el-Kabir celebration going with the current economic realities. Even the middle class amongst them still require government intervention to be able to afford pilgrimage to Hajj.

If I catch this man ehn...... grin grin

Are Muslims different groups of civil and public service with different salary structures and minimum wages?

Where do Nigerian workers see money for Salah or Is Akintola giving Muslim workers grants to celebrate Salah?

this one want to input religious fights to it, it will never work here, the Muslims you are calling here are much suffering under Muslim-Muslim Tinubu government. So you see here that your lies and propaganda will never hold any water. Your propaganda is dead on arrival. Fg should yield to the Labour unions demands and increase the new minimum wage bill to #200k or #150k. Muric, I guess you are the one paying the bills of Muslim workers abi. They have rejects you for years now.

If they implement the new minimum wage, let the Muslim reject it and only ask for 30k minimum wage

Hmmm.

This is actually a good feedback if you consider that the leaders of both NLC and TUC are non-Muslims.

APC desperately looking for a loophole to divide the people on this.

They have seen that the people are surprisingly united in this strike, now they want to use religion to scuttle it, after seeing that their useless talk about electricity and national grid is not working.

Very soon you will see paid "Muslims" with placards protesting with police cover. cheesy

No be same party wey hire bishops again? Lol

I came to say that muric should also tell their muslim that if the they shun the strike and it turns up positive and Minimum wage is increase to at least 100k, that they the muslim who shuned it should also not benefit from the increase. But entered the thread and saw that terrorist has a legal group.
