Excerpts-->

A group of youths and women numbering over 1,000, yesterday clashed following the refusal of the organiser of the rally to pay them their booty.

Some of the youths who spoke with our reporter said they were in the Labour House to express their support for the removal of fuel subsidy by the federal government.



The groups are National Youth Movement for the Removal of Subsidy (NYMRS), Women For Thisday (WFT) and the Unemployed Youth Association of Nigeria (UYAN).

The leader of UYAN, Ebi Zuofa also called on the National Assembly to institute a law that will compel politicians to invest in Nigeria in order to create jobs for the youth.

The groups were afterwards seen in groups collecting N1,000 each from the organisers of the protest.

Trouble, however, started when some of the youths went into rampage, demanding for complete payment from the organisers.

Every attempt to speak with leaders of the groups suffered a setback as none was willing to speak with journalists.

Some women who spoke to LEADERSHIP WEEKEND said, "We were called to protest in Labour House against the general strike expected to begin on Monday. They told us that after the protest we would be paid N1,500 each, but they are now giving us N1,000, even when we were told that they collected N10million for this project."

And they claim the  economy is about to crash but Gov't can afford to bribe anybody for support.
Definitely there's more that they are protecting than the interest of the masses.

PDP,share the money.this is how they will also share the proceeds from the petrol subsidy.
