NLC begins petrol subsidy removal protest in Lagos [PHOTOS]

Members of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) have commenced protests over the removal of petrol subsidy.

The protesters have converged on the Ikeja under-bridge in Lagos. Last Wednesday, NLC issued a seven-day ultimatum to the federal government to reverse all “anti-poor” and “insensitive” policies. The union also called on civil society organisations (CSOs) and its councils across the states to join in the August 2 nationwide strike to protest the soaring cost of living in the country. Efforts by the federal government to halt the planned strike and protest failed. <img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-67573" src="https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0012-300x225.png" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" srcset="https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0012-300x225.png 300w, https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0012-1024x767.png 1024w, https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0012-768x575.png 768w, https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0012.png 1080w" alt="" width="300" height="225" /> <img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-67574" src="https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0015-300x225.png" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" srcset="https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0015-300x225.png 300w, https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0015-1024x767.png 1024w, https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0015-768x575.png 768w, https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0015.png 1080w" alt="" width="300" height="225" /> <img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-67575" src="https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0020-300x225.png" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" srcset="https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0020-300x225.png 300w, https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0020-1024x767.png 1024w, https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0020-768x575.png 768w, https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0020.png 1080w" alt="" width="300" height="225" /> <img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-67576" src="https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0021-300x225.png" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" srcset="https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0021-300x225.png 300w, https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0021-1024x767.png 1024w, https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0021-768x575.png 768w, https://porscheclassy.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/IMG-20230802-WA0021.png 1080w" alt="" width="300" height="225" />
