The Nigeria Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress, along with the pro-people civil society organizations and patriotic professional organisations have rejected the new fuel prices and directed Nigerians to resist their imposition.

In a statement, they described today’s withdrawal of fuel subsidies by the Presidency as “callous and insensitive,” and intended to cause anarchy in the country.

“It is tragic that the Jonathan Government has become the greatest source of insecurity in the country and the spring of danger to the Nigerian nation,” the statement said, and the bodies directed their state councils and unions to take steps to resist any price above N65 litre of PMS.
They further asked them to await a date for the commencement of general strikes and mass protests across the country.

“Similarly, we alert the populace to begin immediate mobilization towards the d-day for the commencement of the strikes, street demonstrations and mass protests across the country,” the statement said.

A country free from this human potential killer called nigeria. To all massobians, i urge you to be ready for a full blown independent protest. A protest that would look like the arab uprising. Hurray! for this year is our year of independent, Well done Gej. People have called you names a number of times but i know you are God sent to deliver and liberate the people of niger delta republic and the the biafra republic from the clutches of this evil amagamation. You've strategically located solders in the north to bring down any attack on our people when we finally declare our independents. Kudos and a job well done. Let the protest begin!
