Just In: NLC declares 2-day warning strike over removal of fuel subsidy
Due to the impact of the petrol subsidy removal on the masses, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has declared a two-day warning strike scheduled for Tuesday, September 5.
It would be recalled that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu had declared an end to subsidy during his first hour in office, tripling the price of petrol from N197 per litre to N617.
Meanwhile, the NLC had severely kicked against the decision and staged a nationwide protest to call on the government not to plunge the masses into hardship.
President Bola Tinubu had subsequently hosted Labour leaders at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
