President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Joe Ajaero, has delivered a sharp critique of President Bola Tinubu’s economic policies, alleging they have exacerbated hardship for Nigerians rather than delivering promised gains.
Speaking at the 21st Daily Trust Dialogue in Abuja on Thursday, Ajaero, addressing the theme “Tinubu’s Economic Reforms: Gainers and Losers,” voiced strong dissent against the recent fuel price hike and its associated subsidy removal.
His central argument hinges on the perceived disconnect between government measures and their intended impact. Ajaero claims that steps taken to mitigate the shock of the fuel price increase, such as fuel price subsidies and alternative transportation initiatives, have fallen short and remained largely invisible to the common people.
