The Nigeria Labour Congress says it will on Tuesday hold a nationwide protest to drive its demand for the upward review of the national minimum wage from N18,000 to N30,000.

The General Secretary of the NLC, Dr. Peter Ozo-Eson, said in a statement that there would be no strike for now.

Ozo-Eson, therefore, asked members of the public to disregard reports that the strike would begin tomorrow.

The statement read in part, “It has come to our attention that some sections of the news media have largely misrepresented our action plan in reaction to the delay in transmitting the recommendations of the Tripartite Committee on a new national minimum wage to the National Assembly by President Muhammadu Buhari.

“It should be recalled that the National Executive Council of the NLC met on December 17 last year and directed that we hold nationwide mobilisation of workers and our allies if, by December 31, 2018, the bill on the national minimum wage has yet to be sent to the National Assembly to be passed as an Act of Parliament.

“We immediately announced then that on Tuesday, January 8, 2019, there will be a nationwide mass mobilisation and protests simultaneously across all states in Nigeria. This does not translate to a strike.”

After protest what next. Buhari does not listen and does not read newspaper according to Amaechi.

Hope NLC has not been compromised as usual.

About time, about time...

Though it's still looking very much like NLC's part of the charade now with a sole function of grandstanding and delaying any meaningful action till after the elections when all hope would've been lost!

NLC IS A GOAT

NLC is a joke....




who nationwide protest help?.. abeg make una just kataway!!

This NLC that is not ready to be serious.

Get your PVC Nigerians and lets VOTE out APC. A Party full of lies, blame game, insecurity, shedding of innocent blood, poverty and jeopardizing the future of Nigeria and our unborn children.
We all know its only ATIKU/OBI (PDP) that can stand this corrupt APC that are willing to rig this 2019 election.

Lets VOTE ATIKU/OBI.
VOTE PDP.

Lets get Nigeria working.
God bless you all.

What's a protest when Strike can be more effective

Everything is upside down in Nigeria!!!

How can they cancel a well organised strike 12 midnight and now expect serious minded people not to know they are using them as pawns in their own selfish interest.

We are all walking on our heads aswear!!!
