The union had demanded payment of N475 billion compensation for lives of members and properties lost during the #EndSARS protest and Shasa market chaos, and dismantling of all road blocks on federal highways due to problems its members get subjected to when carrying out their duties. Grand Matron of AUFCDN, Hajia Hauwa Kabir Usman who announced commencement of the strike asked the police not to disturb task force of the union who will carry out enforcement of the strike by ensuring that no food and cattle were moved from North to the South. Usman said; Quote:“The leadership of the union has already made a strong plan to ensure that all our exits (our borders) between the Northern and Southern part are closed. Usman who recalled how they gave a 21-day ultimatum to the federal government, vowed that the union would not compromise on its demands. b |
