The National Union of Electricity Employees (NUEE) has called off its nationwide strike for two weeks.
The workers, on Wednesday, commenced the industrial action and shut down major power stations in the country.
The strike was said to have been caused by the contravention of workers’ conditions and default on payment of entitlement by the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).
The electricity workers had stormed the Kaduna Regional Headquarters of the TCN and cut off power supply, resulting in a shutdown of the national grid.
Meanwhile, the TCN, in a statement, said it is working to restore power and resolve the industrial dispute as soon as possible.
But after a meeting with Minister of Labour, Chris Ngige on Wednesday, the NUEE decided to suspend the strike action.
