The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, has said the recent hike in the pump price of Premium Motor Spirit, PMS, commonly known as petrol, and other perceived anti-poor policies were weapons of war against Nigerian workers and masses. According to NLC, impoverishing workers and pushing millions more into hellish living does not, in any way, approximate sound economic management.

Fuel Subsidy: Nigerian Labour Congress Knocks Tinubu For Shunning Dialogue, Taking Decisions Like Macho ManAccording to NLC, impoverishing workers and pushing millions more into hellish living does not, in any way, approximate sound economic management.

Represented by the Deputy President of Congress and President-General of Maritime Workers Union of Nigeria, MWUN, Prince Adewale Adeyanju, in the programme supported by the American Solidarity Centre, Ajaero, noted that trade union leaders must not abandon the Nigerian people and workers to their fate.

”It is important to note that governance in Nigeria is always spoken about in paradoxical dimensions. “This policy direction ought to have been the product of dialogue amongst stakeholders but was shunned by a democratically elected government which rather believes in machoism that has since left the economy reeling.

“It has become exigent that we forcefully bring to the knowledge of our various leaders that rendering many more millions of Nigerians poor could not be an option for punishment. “A nation with a huge number of poor people and an increasing number of the working poor is akin to mega trouble. Growth without commensurate benefits to the people is meaningless. Nigerians, workers and comrades can put a stop to this.
