1.2 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Trade Union is an association formed to regulate the terms and conditions of employment of workers. Before 1938 when trade union ordinance ushered in formal trade union activities, what looked like trade unions were in Nigeria in form of trade associations, craft and professional trade association called African Guilds and Craft Association.
The major difference between the craft and professional trade association has what is today known as trade Union is that trade associations were formed for the benefit of workers inform of lending money to workers an dexchange of tools. The association had welfare scheme of distressed members and attend social functions of members (Okenwa 2001:10)
Yesufu (1962:6) observed that group activities of the sort being deserved were strongly rooted in the tribal structures and were widely spread. The main functions of the trade associations were to organize mutual aid to distressed members and to regulate trade practices.
Some of the trade and professional associations that existed before formal trade union Movement were: mechanic Mutual aid, Artisans and laborers in the public works department (PWD) 1887, the Nigeria civil service union 1912. Nigeria Native railway Native staff union. 1919, etc . Trade Union activities later increased due to some reasons such as: The 1938 Trade Union ordinance. The General Defense Regulation, 1942, the General Strike of 1945 and other factors too numerous to mention.
Presently in Nigeria, we have industrial union of teachers (NUT), Nigeria Bar Association (NBA), Nigeria Union of Journalist (NUJ) etc.
In the past two decades, there have been incessant industrial action in Nigeria due to agitations for better conditions of services by the trade unions. Most at time, the Government does not always reach at agreement with them thereby leading to strike always. A strike can be devastating as it could cripple the nerve of the country’s economy. The increment of fuel price from N45 to N52 by President Olusegun Obasanjo Administration let to four (4) day strike that lasted between 11th-14th October, 2004 which brought economic activities to a stand still. But after much negotiation between the Nigeria Labour congress (NLC) President comrade Adams Oshomole and the federal Government of Nigeria the price was brought down to N49 per liter.
