NLC shuns meeting with the Nigerian government, gives condition for workers not to shut down economic activities on Wednesday

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) declined to take part in the meeting with the Federal Government delegation scheduled for Sunday, June 4, 2023, in the Presidential Villa, stating that there would be no discussion unless the government reduced the price of fuel to its prior level.

According to NLC President Joe Ajaero, Congress will boycott meetings with the government until the Federal Government complies with the Appropriations Act of 2023, which provides for subsidies through the end of June.
