Staff of the National Identity Management Commission have embarked on indefinite nation-wide strike to demand better welfare packages from the Federal Government.
The workers are protesting poor salary structure, lack of promotion and lack of personal protective kits for prevention of covid-19, among others adding that some of their members who contracted the virus were rejected by the management of the agency.
The strike followed a directive issued by the NIMC unit of Association of the Senior Civil Servants of Nigeria.
The National Task Force on NIN and Sim registration met on December 21,2020 and agreed on 3 weeks registration which ends on January 19,2021.
