The Nigeria Labour Congess (NLC) has declared a nationwide strike starting from next Wednesday.
The Labour unions’ decision comes following the fuel shortages across the country occasioned by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s inaugural speech in which he declared that “fuel subsidy is gone”.
Joe Ajaero, the NLC President while announcing this after an emergency meeting of the union’s National Executive Council (NEC) in Abuja, said the government, particularly the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited had up until Wednesday next week to revert to the old price petrol, adding that failure of the Federal Government to meet the ultimatum would attract an indefinite protest across the country.
