The protesters are reportedly members of the Nigeria Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress.
This comes following the recent attack on NLC President Joe Ajaero in Imo State. In response, aviation unions across Nigeria had jointly declared the suspension of all flights to Owerri, Imo State from every airport in the country.
The labor protest has now disrupted operations and left travelers stuck at the Abuja airport. Related news links the NLC strike in Imo to huge economic losses and threatened the state’s upcoming off-season elections.
The nationwide strike called by the NLC from Tuesday has now impacted the capital’s airport, leaving passengers stranded.
