The staff of the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) have suspended their one-day old industrial action.

President, Association of Senior Civil Servants of Nigeria, NIMC Unit, Asekokhai Lucky, confirmed the suspension of the strike to PUNCH on Friday.

The NIMC staff commenced an industrial action on Thursday over alleged lack of funds, fears of exposure to COVID-19 among others.

It was gathered that the workers decided to suspend the strike after a successful meeting with the Federal Government.

Mr Lucky said the workers are expected to resume work by Monday and continue the enrolment of applicants for the National Identification Number.
