The Nigeria Labour Congress has demanded N200,000 as the National Minimum Wage while protesting over removal of fuel subsidy.
In a video seen by Kukukuru News, the protesters on Wednesday converged at the Ikeja under-bridge in Lagos State.
Recall NLC had given the Government a seven-day ultimatum with threats of a Nationwide Strike scheduled to commence on Wednesday, August 2, 2023.
Speaking on a video, one of the protesters said that the cost of living has gone up and people are dying out of hunger.
He said, “The cost of living is very high and people are dying every day.
“We decided to go to Abuja to discuss with the Government constructively by tendering our charter of demands which includes the National Minimum Wage to be put forward as N200,000, the four refineries must work and Labour to be part of the supervisory committee.”
