Court Halts NLC, TUC Strike Set for November 14
In a recent development, the National Industrial Court (NIC) has intervened in the brewing conflict between the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), the Trade Union Congress (TUC), and their affiliates, and the Imo State Government. The court issued a restraining order against the planned nationwide strike scheduled to commence on November 14, which was initially prompted by the assault on the NLC National President, Joe Ajaero, in Imo State. The application sought to prevent the strike in order to avert potential hardships on law-abiding citizens and their businesses. Justice Kanyip instructed that the restraining order be prominently displayed on the wall of the Labour House, the last known address of the NLC and TUC, to communicate the court’s decision. Justice Anuwe, the Court President, is expected to issue a hearing notice to the involved parties at an appropriate time.

US-China Relations: Biden to meet Xi Jinping Wednesday
President Joe Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping will meet Wednesday in California for talks on trade, Taiwan and managing fraught US-Chinese relations in the first engagement between the leaders of the world’s two biggest economies in nearly a year, Biden administration officials said. The White House has said for weeks that it anticipated Biden and Xi would meet on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in San Francisco, but negotiations went down to the eve of the gathering, which kicks off Saturday. Biden and Xi last met nearly a year ago on the sidelines of the Group of 20 summit in Bali, Indonesia. In the nearly three-hour meeting, Biden objected directly to China’s “coercive and increasingly aggressive actions” toward Taiwan and discussed Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and other issues. The officials also noted that Biden is determined to restore military-to-military communications that Beijing largely withdrew from after then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan in August 2022.
