Trade union leaders from nine countries in East and West Africa met in Lagos in February 2026 to discuss mounting threats to workers’ rights, restrictions on union activity, and growing pressure to privatise public services. They called for stronger regional cooperation, investment in young and women leaders, and expressed solidarity with Nigerian health workers while reaffirming the importance of cross-border unity to defend labour rights and public services.
