President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the sack of the management of the Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) over the strike by the Nigerian Union of Electricity Employees (NUEE)

The strike by the NUEE left areas serviced by the AEDC without power for hours on Monday.

The workers were protesting unpaid allowances, salaries and unremitted pension deductions.
