No Going Back On Protest Says NLC President

The organised labour comprising the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC), has ruled out a suspension of the nationwide mass protest against fuel price hike and other policies of the federal government.

NLC President, Joe Ajaero, disclosed this to journalists Tuesday night at Labour House, Abuja.

Earlier, Festus Osifo, TUC President, had said labour leaders were going into a meeting to decide the final outcome of the protest.

Mr Osifo said this after a meeting with Federal Government representatives led by Femi Gbajabiamila, Chief of Staff to the President.

Mr  Ajaero said the meeting held with the representatives did not change the union’s position on the protest.

He directed state councils of the NLC to mobilise for the action scheduled to begin today.
