The organised labour consisting of the NLC and TUC, yesterday, issued the Federal Government 14 days ultimatum to honour its part of the October 2, 2023 agreement reached with labor to address the ‘massive suffering’ caused by the removal of subsidy on petroleum products and naira devaluation. The ultimatum, which starts counting from today, was conveyed in a joint statement signed by president of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Joe Ajaero, and the Trade Union Congress of Nigeria (TUC) chairman, Festus Osifo. Labor warned that everything must be done within two weeks to avoid a situation where the unions might be compelled to take appropriate steps to protect Nigerian workers and masses, which will herald a nationwide protest slated to begin on Friday, February 23. This is besides the two weeks ultimatum given by the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) earlier this week for the government to address the galloping inflation making food prices out of the reach of citizens or there will be mass demonstrations across the country. Labour maintained that government’s failure to uphold its end of the bargain was regrettable and unacceptable to the working people and the citizenry. They alleged that the widespread hunger is now ravishing millions of Nigerians, with workers’ purchasing power significantly eroded, while insecurity has assumed an increasing dimension.
