Members of the organised Labour including the Nigerian Labour Congress and its counterpart, Trade Union Congress, in Oyo state reportedly shun the 63rd Independence anniversary parade held at the main bowl of the Lekan Salami Stadium, Adamasingba in the state.
Governor Seyi Makinde was also represented at the event.
Only students from both public and private schools from across the state are participating in the event.
The arrival of the deputy governor at about 10 a.m. officially signalled the commencement of the event.
The venue and the surrounding environment were low in the level of funfair, pump, and pageantry usually associated with such events.
The NLC had earlier insisted that there was going back on the proposed nationwide industrial action scheduled to commence on October 3, 2023.
