Fuel Subsidy: NLC to begin nationwide strike Wednesday
We bring you greetings from the leadership of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC).
You will recall that arising from the National Executive Council meeting held on 2nd June 2023, it was decided that Congress will embark on a nationwide action and withdrawal of services, against the fraudulent increase in the price of fuel across the thirty-six states of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and the FCT.
Please be informed that the nationwide action will commence on Wednesday, 7th June, 2023. To this effect, we request that all state chairpersons should mobilise workers for the action and ensure full compliance with the directives as services in both the public and private sector are expected to be fully withdrawn by Wednesday, 7th June, 2023.
All state chairpersons are expected to fully abide by the decisions of the National Executive Council.
Solidarity!
Comrade Emmanuel Ugboaja, Esq., mni General Secretary
