The National Industrial Court sitting in Owerri, the Imo State capital, has issued a fresh court order of injunction restraining the organised labour from embarking on any further industrial action in the state pending the determination of the substantive suit.
Justice Nelson Ogbuanya gave the order on Friday after hearing the submissions of counsels to both parties that they were yet to reach a settlement on their dispute.
The defendants are the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), the Secretary-General Emmanuel Ugboaja, the Trade Union Congress (TUC) and its Secretary General Nuhu Toro.
In the suit No NICN/ OW/41/2023, the Attorney General of Imo State and the Imo State Government are claimants.
The court held that in considering the motion for interlocutory injunction by the claimants and after hearing from both counsels, it reserved November 30, 2023, for the ruling.
