The staff of the Nigeria Meteorological Agency (NiMeT) have agreed to temporarily suspend their industrial action for two weeks to give the federal government an opportunity to address the concerns raised by the workers.
The decision was reached Thursday evening after Nigeria’s Aviation Minister, Festus Keyamo, met with leaders of the aggrieved unions, including the National Union of Air Transport Employees (NUATE) and the Association of Nigeria Aviation Professionals (ANAP), a statement issued by the Minister’s Special Adviser on Media and Communications, Tunde Moshood, said.
