The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), has revealed that its members and affiliate unions have commenced mobilisation for a two-day national protest on February 27th and 28th, should the Federal Government fail to implement all the agreements signed with the union in October 2023, at the expiration of the 14-day ultimatum it earlier issued.
NLC President, Comrade Joe Ajaero, informed journalists of the development in Abuja on Friday after the National Executive Council (NEC) and its affiliates. He went on to say that its members would be on standby for an indefinite strike which would commence seven days after the nationwide protest if the government still fails to meet its demands.
Ajaero who noted that Labour was no longer interested in empty talks from government but actions, urged the government to immediately implement the agreement and restore faith in the democratic process, as Nigerians were struggling to survive.
