FG ‘ll Not Increase Petro Price In New Year, NLC Assures Nigerians by Localamos(m): 7:02am On Dec 19, 2012
President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, Abdulwahed Omar, Tuesday
assured Nigerians that the Federal Government would not increase the price of petrol
in the New Year. Omar, who gave the assurance in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN,
in Lagos, said already the masses were facing a lot of hardship, adding that
government would not want to add to their sufferings. According to him, any further increase in the prices of petroleum products can result in
violent protest by the masses, and government will not want that to happen. “Nigerians should expect a good year in 2013. We don’t expect sudden surprises from
government like we had early this year. “I don’t think government will be disposed to doing that because if you look at it, the
hardship Nigerians are enduring now is slightly higher than what they were enduring
at the end of last year. “So, I think it will be unthinkable for government to want to compound the problems
of the common man. “So, let us hope that 2013 is going to come with good hopes and with a lot of
prospects for everybody in this country.” The union president said Nigerians should not expect anything from the NLC, but
should hope on many good things from government. Omar urged government not to sack any worker, saying that it would not solve the
country’s economic problems. He advised government to tackle the unemployment
problem in 2013, saying that it would be a major yardstick for measuring the
country’s development.

Who says the govt gives a damn about hardship of masses? So they know they know the last subsidy removal led to hardship and what did they do about it? Squander uncountable billions while majority of the masses languish in hardship. Then someone will come and tell us to pray for them cos they're falling sick and dropping dead. No be only prayer.
