Nigerian banks have chosen to participate in the two-day strike organized by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) through the National Union of Banks, Insurance, and Financial Institutions Employees (NUBIFIE). As a result, all banks are expected to close on Tuesday, September 5th, and Wednesday, September 6th, 2023. However, the Federal Government has requested the NLC to reconsider and call off the strike to prevent any disruptions to the progress it has achieved, emphasizing the importance of maintaining peace.
