To this end all NAFDAC offices at the seaports, land ports, airports have been shut indefinitely.


"All other offices of NAFDAC remain closed. It is not a warning strike. It is not JOHESU (strike). Workers can only resume when their 2012 and 2013 salary arrears are paid.


"Other demands include payment of first 28 days after employment, travelling allowances, conversion of HND holders, Implementation of CONHESS among others."
