The Amalgamated Union of Foodstuff and Cattle Dealers of Nigeria (AUFCDN) have agreed to end the on-going strike and resume the supply of foodstuffs to the Southern part of Nigeria.

They reached the agreement at an ongoing meeting with some governors in Abuja on Wednesday, March 3.

Abdullahi Tom, a youth leader of the cattle dealers in Lagos, told Daily Trust, that Kogi state governor, Yahaya Bello, is among the leaders who appealed to them to end the industrial action.

The union went on strike over claims of losing their members and properties during the #EndSARS protest and Shasa market chaos.
