Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) plan to shutdown economic activities nationwide from October 3, 2023.
This was in dissatisfaction with the government’s inability to effectively implement policies aimed at easing the hardships faced by Nigerians after the removal of fuel sunsidy.
The NLC’s national president, Joe Ajaero, conveyed this resolution during a virtual National Executive Council meeting held on Zoom.
Ajaero revealed that discussions were held with TUC officials to strategize on the way forward, and they jointly decided to communicate their stance to the government.
