NNPC fuel price hike: We demand immediate reversal — NLC

The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, has demanded an “immediate reversal” of the pump price of petrol across the country.

NLC made this known in a post on its X page on Tuesday night.

The post reads: “We demand the immediate reversal of the latest increase in the pump of PMS across the country.”

Earlier in the day, the union claimed they felt betrayed by President Bola Tinubu after the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL, increased the official price of fuel from N617 to N897 per litre.

NLC president, Joe Ajaero, claimed that why they accepted the N70,000 minimum wage was an understanding that there would be no further increase in the price of fuel.

Ajaero threatened that in the coming days, the appropriate organs of Congress will be meeting to make appropriate decisions which will be made public.
