FG in last-minute meeting with labour to avert national protests

Officials of the Federal Government are currently meeting with the Nigeria Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress to avert planned protests over the high cost of living, inflation, insecurity, and hardship in the country.

There have been a series of protests across the country over the cost of living among Nigerians.

The NLC and TUC had on February 8 issued a 14-day nationwide strike notice to the government over the failure to implement the agreements reached on October 2, 2023, following the removal of the fuel subsidy.

Organised labour, had last week Monday started mobilising its members for a nationwide protest slated for February 27 and 28 over the cost of living crisis in the country.
