The Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdurosheed Akanbi has charged the organised labour in the country, especially The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, and Trade Union Congress, TUC, not to ground the country’s economy by weaponising strikes.

The monarch also urged the labour unions to give President Bola Tinubu the benefit of the doubt to rejig the nation’s economy rather than embarking on strike action intermittently.

Speaking at the 2023 God’s Festival held at his palace in Iwo, Osun state, he stressed the need for all stakeholders in the country to support the President’s resolve to return Nigeria’s economy to the path of prosperity.
