The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has disclosed rallies will hold in all states to protest against the planned removal of fuel subsidy by the federal government.

NLC decision is contained in a communique issued on Friday and signed by Ayuba Wabba and Emmanuel Ugboaja, its president and secretary, respectively, after the organisation’s national executive council (NEC) meeting in Abuja.

“The NEC, therefore, resolved to reject and resist the planned increase in the pump price of petrol by the Federal Government, as it is extremely insensitive to the acute hardship being experienced by Nigerian workers and people,” the statement reads.

“Pursuant to its rejection and resistance of further increase in the price of petrol, to organise protest rallies in all the 36 States of the Federation on Jan. 27, 2022.
