The Nigeria Labour Congress has vowed to proceed with its planned strike and protest with effect from September 28 following the failure of the Federal Government to reverse the hike in electricity tariff and fuel price.

Rising from its National Executive Council meeting in Abuja a few minutes ago, the NLC President, Ayuba Wabba, said the proposed action by the organised labour would proceed from next week.

He stated that the decision was unanimously taken by the chairmen of the 36 states and FCT chapters of the NLC.

TUC to join NLC in nationwide strike
The Trade Union Congress (TUC) of Nigeria has on Tuesday disclosed that it will join the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and other the Civil Society allies to execute the nationwide strike which is to commence on the 28th of September.

TUC, after an exhaustive meeting held to review its mobilsation strategies to protest the fuel hike and electricity tariff, resolved that the Congress is going to work in collaboration with its sister Labour unions.

The TUC President, Comrade Quadri Olaleye, in a said: “Consequent upon this, the ultimatum which should expire by midnight of today 22nd September, 2020 has been shifted to 28th September, 2020 for effective and maximum effect. We want to use this opportunity to call on Nigerians, especially those in the informal sector to bear with us while the industrial action lasts.

“There is no need for the pains we bear. It is a needless one. They ask us to tighten our belts while they loosen theirs. Services are not rendered yet we are compelled to pay estimated bills. You will recall that this government during its electioneering campaigns in 2014 told the world there is nothing like subsidy. We were told that they will build refineries, all that are history now. We run a mono-economy and any hike in fuel automatically will have adverse effect on us yet successive government tow that path because they are not creative.

“As at today, about eight states are yet to commence the payment of new minimum wage and its consequential adjustment even though the president signed it into law on April 18, 2019. We have written letters to the governors and also engaged them in dialogue but all to no avail. Sometimes we wonder if these people have conscience at all.

“The Congress hereby appeals to all Nigerians to get ready for the unprecedented mass action against corruption, obnoxious policies, rape and other violent offences, breach of Collective Agreement, unemployment, etc. We also call on the USA, UK, Germany, Spain, etc. to support our struggle by placing indefinite VISA ban on our political leaders whose stock in trade is to loot and impoverish the masses and the country. We can no longer take it. Enough is Enough.”

Ok

U are making noise about going on strike for a fuel hike dat is almost 1 month old and everyday U come out to remind us no going back while Nigerians have been buying for going to a month now.. Una dey madt

Compromised NLC

Initial gragra

When you're dealing with frauds and liars, listen more to what they don't say than what they do....

After 3 week of increase Oga we are getting use to the new price already, during the time of Oshopikin Obj hear am. 2 days after increase na strike next.

NLC is just a toothless bulldog...all they do is bark and bark and bark. Once the government throws some crumbs to them they'll keep quiet and devour it like orphans.

It would be easier for INEC to overturn Obaseki's victory and handover the mantle to ize-iyamu than for NLC to embark on any serious action in favour of the masses.

It will end in egunje for the top hierarchy of the NLC

No going back indeed

...and some schools just resumed

I heard this same sh*t just last week...

Useless union with no objectives talk more of having any impact on a failed and lacklustre government

Every one who participated in Ojota protest that year should be arrested and flogged 50 lashes.

Lol you guys neva dey serious. NLC is now useless like P in Psychology, Dere value keep depreciating like Zimbabwe Dollar

a

Good morning 2 them!

Crop of insincere folks!

TUC & NLC leaders are disguisedly embarking on dis action 2 agitate 4 their own personal shares frm d national booty!

And dt's d fulcrum of d matter!

If u know, u know!

Mumu people....

Make NLC go sit down jare.
We have been buying at the new rate for over 1month and have adjusted and accepted it, so why coming now to talk about going on strike. Moreover this is just the beginning cos once crude oil price surges up, we would be buying this fuel at over 300naira per liter.
Nigerians better brace up

midnight of the 28th a press release will come out as usual.

To much chest beating. Start this strike already.

Toothless Union

If you like strike from now till December, FG didn't budget for subsidy in 2020 yet senate, house of representatives and Civil Servants kept mute...

No going back

Fuel must be 4o naira per litre as promised

This strike is completely useless for 2 reasons:

1. Nigerians are gradually getting used to the new normal

2. The fuel subsidy regime needs to go for good.

The country seems to be malfunctioning in every single area.
Leadership is a bloody mess and the people are suffering for it.

See how slow the unions are to react to what affects everybody directly

Nonsense and unionism

What's tha business?

cowards
