The Organised Labour in Lagos State has said all sectors would be shut from Monday.

He said airports, banks, and offices would not be allowed to function.

Deputy Vice President, Nigeria Labour Congress, Amaechi Asogwuni, spoke at a news conference on Sunday.

“No airport will be in operation in Nigeria; banks are not expected to function, so no business owners should risk himself, for Nigerian workers have taken that decision”, NAN quoted him as saying.

“We are the workers and we are withdrawing our services; we have the right to do so because protests are our constitutional right. And I believe we will enforce it; schools shall remain closed until this action ends.”

The labour leader appealed to Nigerians to the protest.

He reminded them that it was part of their quota to democracy.

On the increase in petrol price, Asogwuni said the federal government should have engaged the organised labour and other stakeholders.

“The government did not do that at a time it ought to; it failed in its duty to engage labour before time. On the issue of electricity, the government had earlier had an interaction with labour in Kano and we discouraged it from proceeding.”

The govt should arrest these professional extortionists who use the suffering of the people to negotiate wealth for themselves ... NLC are thieves and criminals who only make things worse and then make billions from extorting the govt !!!!

Ever since the Era of GMB, the NLC has been docile at issues hovering and threatening the existence of Nigerian citizens, it's as if they suddenly developed cold feet and couldnt lift a muscle.

So begging the question,Can they?

Can they grow some balls?

Can they do the right thing for once without been compromised?

Don't be surprised if this protest doesn't achieve its desired aim...

Nigeria was a country indeed!

Work and earn decently. Invest your time and skills in viable businesses. No amount is too small to start a business, you only need to learn the basic. You can make it in life without gambling!

The fvck

Niggarr!!


Enough is enough!

This government is a joker, if they think Nigerians will accept this ludicrous hike in motor spirit.

I hope the NLC don't back down in this struggle on the long run?

The vast majority of Nigerians that are living below the least poverty index by the UN and struggling from the economic impact of the covid-19 on businesses when there was zero palliatives to go round will never accept this.

Nothing justifies the increase in the price of motor spirit. Fvck subsidy!

Buhari!

Is you stupid?

Is you dumb?

The fvck niggarr!!
