Organized labour unions yesterday directed striking workers in Ondo state to disregard speculation in some quarters that the ongoing indefinite strike will be suspended on or before Monday.
The unions warned that no worker should come to office until there was an official information from the labour leaders to that effect.
The unions spoke after their meeting which was attended by chairmen, Joint Negotiating Committee (JNC), Sunday Adeleye, Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Bosede Daramola and Trade Union Congress (TUC), Sola Ekundayo.
They agreed that the industrial action should not be called off since the state government had refused to make any offer on their demand for the payment of about six months salary arrears.
The labour leaders described the allegations on a radio station in Akure that they had been compromised or bribed to suspend as untrue, unfounded and unprofessional.
The labour unions assured workers that no negotiation would be held with government’s officials outside working days.
