“Unless urgent and pragmatic steps are taken to control the rising cost of petrol and cooking gas, the nation will go into economic crisis, leading to negative outcomes”

The meeting is focused on the state of the nation, especially the petrol pricing and its consequences.

The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, said Thursday it would meet with the federal government on how workers could survive the recent hike in the pump price of petrol.

“This crisis is not an accident of fate but a direct consequence of ill-thought-out and ill- implemented policies by the Tinubu-led federal government”

“The said Director assured him they would give Congress leadership a notice of not less than 48 hours for the visit”
