Following the removal of the petroleum subsidy four months ago, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has lamented that the Federal Government has failed to meet the union’s demands.
The government has had sufficient time to satisfy some of the NLC’s demands, according to the NLC.
The Union is preparing for an indefinite strike in response to the country’s economic difficulties.
The demands include a review of the minimum wage, the provision of a feasible roadmap for the CNG alternative, the repair of the nation’s refineries, and the payment of salary arrears to lecturers.
The ultimatum expires at the conclusion of this week.
Monday marked the second meeting between the Union and the Federal Government, which resulted in an impasse.
And NLC President Joe Ajaero’s Monday appearance on Channels Television highlighted the union’s frustration.
“We concur that the Federal Government has had more than enough time over the past four months and that, even if a commitment is made, issues will be resolved within the next four days.
“And we hope that the minister [Simon Lalong] will assist us in resolving the issue within the next few days,” he said.
