Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana SAN, has declared support for the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, to embark on strike over suffering in the country as a result of naira notes scarcity.
Falana said, “I have declared solidarity for the action promised by the NLC, which if anything is overdue. We look forward to being able to assist with the pickets of the CBN offices in every state and providing any support that we can for the planned stay-at-home action.
“These are for the decision to call for action by your members over the lingering cash crisis. We hope that this action will be implemented, as planned, and as soon as possible, as we cannot over-emphasise the trauma that the lingering cash restriction policy of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) is causing, especially to poor families.”
