The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, has demanded an “immediate reversal” of the pump price of petrol across the country.
NLC made this known in a post on
its X page on Tuesday night.
The post reads: “We demand the
immediate reversal of the latest increase in the pump of PMS across the
country.”
Earlier in the day, the union
claimed they felt betrayed by President Bola Tinubu after the Nigerian National
Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL, increased the official price of fuel from
N617 to N897 per litre.
NLC president, Joe Ajaero,
claimed that why they accepted the N70,000 minimum wage was an understanding
that there would be no further increase in the price of fuel.
Ajaero threatened that in the
coming days, the appropriate organs of Congress will be meeting to make
appropriate decisions which will be made public.
