The Nation Newspaper Why Muslims must say no to NLC, TUC strike - MURIC
) has told the labour unions that their ongoing strike will make life unbearable for Muslims preparing for e-Id al-Kabir which is just a few days away.
The statement reads: “There is no scintilla of doubt that the strike will make life unbearable for Muslims preparing for Id al-Kabir which is just a few days away. “But what does NLC think will happen to Muslims whose festival of Id al-Kabir is already knocking on the door? Transport fares 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.
“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.’”
