From Abubakar Yunusa Abuja

The Nigerian Aviation Handling Company Plc (NAHCO) staff members have suspended their industrial action.

The aviation workers, under the aegis of the national union of air transport employees (NUATE) and air transport services senior staff association of Nigeria (ATSSSAN), said the management of NAHCO had commenced negotiations with its workers.

Frances Akinjole, deputy general secretary, ATSSSAN, disclosed this to journalists on Monday.

“It has been suspended, and they have agreed to commence negotiation on the salary issue with us,” Akinjole said.

Peoples Daily had reported that flights at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport were disrupted earlier on Monday when the NAHCO staff members walked out of the international airport.
