Labour management unrest has become common feature of Nigeria organization in recent past especially in the public sector organization including local government. Available records have shown even in their respective organization conflicts exist between labour and management in the past decades. The one in the present dispensation particularly as from 1990s appears to be more frequent while it is expected that labour and management should work harmoniously together for the achievement of common goals. This expectation is not always fulfilled in the real life, it is so because in most cases labour and management tends to have divergence views.
However, these divergences arise from the different expectation of the two parties. Taking specifically about the local government, the labour management conflicts is exacerbated by the recent development in the local government.
