FCTA workers to begin strike Monday

Workers of Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Administration have declared  an indefinite strike beginning from 12 am on Monday, January 19, 2026.

The workers, under the umbrella Joint Unions Action Committee (JUAC), said all staff, including those of the College of Education, Zuba, Senior Secondary schools, would down their tools on Monday.

The union highlighted the non-remittance of pension and National Housing Fund (NHF) deductions as a “serious breach of trust and a threat to the future security of its members.”

The union also demanded the immediate removal of retired Directors and Permanent Secretaries, calling their tenure extension a “clear contravention” of Public Service Rules.

“It is on this note that I declare an indefinite strike action from Monday, January, 2026.”

Our correspondent reports that the strike action will paralyze operations across the FCTA’s Secretariat, Departments, and Agencies (SDAs) .

The FCT Administration is yet to issue an official response to the strike declaration.
