The Maverick musician Charles Oputa, known by his stage name Charly Boy, has disclosed his intentions to assist the workers unions in their ongoing strike.

According to ZINGTIE, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) initiated an indefinite strike on Monday to compel the government to reach a consensus on a revised minimum wage for labourers and reconsider the hike in electricity rates for certain customers.

However, late Monday, labour unions and the federal government agreed on a new national minimum wage, raising the possibility that the strike would end soon.

Both sides agreed that the federal government would commit to a minimum salary sum higher than the N60,000 it presently offers, even if the exact digit of the new minimum wage were not disclosed.

In response, Charly Boy declared early on Tuesday that if the labour unions in Nigeria do not call off their current strike by the end of next week, he would organize a demonstration in Abuja that would bring together 90% of the country’s power bikers.

He wrote the following in Pidgin on his X handle: “If NLC no f**k up and cancel this strike by next week. I go mobilize 90% of Nigerians Power Bikers. We go storm Abuja, if heaven go fall or the devil go land. We will say, bring it on.
I just don tire. Yeye dey smell.”
