The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, has knocked President Bola Tinubu’s two years anniversary in office, saying Nigerian workers and the masses have experienced no gains but only pain and misery.
NLC President, Joe Ajaero, in an appraisal of the administration’s first two years, stated that there has been nothing to celebrate since the government came into power.
Ajaero said in two years, the only thing bolder than his rhetoric is the magnitude of suffering and hardship his policies have inflicted on workers and ordinary Nigerians.
According to him, the sudden removal of the petrol subsidy sent shockwaves through an already fragile economy, causing fuel prices to skyrocket from N187 to over N600 per litre overnight.
The NLC boss said instead of reinvestment, Nigerians got inflation so vicious that families now skip meals, businesses shut down daily, and transport costs consume what little remains of workers’ wages.
