This is following the government’s alleged inability to meet the demands of workers regarding their salaries.

Reports say labour has subsequently given the state government a seven day ultimatum to pay salaries or the strike will resume.

A worker who spoke to Punch under anonymity, said "We find it curious that up till now the government has yet to pay the 50 per cent salaries of workers. When we tried to find out what happened, we were told that they were working on something and that by this week, they will commence payment.

“We are optimistic that the government will pay but if it fails to pay, we will be left with no option but to review our suspended industrial action. We are believing that this week will work again.”

The Bayelsa state chairman of the Trade Union Congress (TUC), Tari  Dounana, also said “We are conferring with the state government to see that they commence payment this week.”
