The leadership of Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has scheduled February 27 and 28 as a two-day nationwide mass protest.
The National President of NLC, Joe Ajaero, made this known during an ongoing press conference at Labour House, Abuja.
The protest was declared to press the demands on the current hardship being faced by Nigerians.
It would be recalled that the leaders of organised labour and government representatives entered into a Memorandum of Understanding on October 2, 2023, after a 16-point agreement was reached.
The agreement was for the government to address the suffering of the masses resulting from fuel subsidy removal and find a lasting solution to the devaluation of the naira, inflation, insecurity, among others.
Ajaero while speaking at the media briefing accused the Federal Government of failing to implement the agreement reached in October.
He said, “It is regrettable that we are compelled to resort to such measures, but the persistent neglect of the welfare of citizens and Nigerian workers and the massive hardship leave us with no choice.”
