Nigerian Labour Congress Says Protest Continues Despite Meeting With Tinubu

President Tinubu and governors held a consultative meeting with the Nigeria Labour Congress to discuss averting a planned nationwide protest, with a decision expected by tomorrow.

  • On Tuesday, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu met with labour leaders around midnight at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, to discuss a planned nationwide protest.
  • Consultations continued among key stakeholders, with Governor Hope Uzodimma saying APC governors and Minister Nkeiruka Onyejeocha joined talks to address concerns and avert a protest over rising insecurity.
  • Leading the delegation, Comrade Joe Ajaero, President of the Nigeria Labour Congress , said labour leaders will deliberate internally and announce an outcome by Wednesday after meeting at State House, Abuja.
  • No formal outcome was released after the closed-door session a day before the NLC's mass action scheduled for December 17, with talks focusing on averting the protest and finding common ground with the government.
  • Having earlier vowed there would be 'no going back', the Nigeria Labour Congress now faces a deadline as NAN reports it will announce early on Wednesday whether the planned protest proceeds or is suspended.
