The organized labour movement is planning to hold a protest on the state of the nation.
The protest is to call the attention of the government to the country’s deteriorating security situation, the lingering strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) and the unending energy crisis.
Speaking at two separate conferences in Abuja, the president of the Nigeria Labour Congress, AYUBA WABBA and the President of the National Union of Local Government Employees (NULGE), AMBALI OLATUNJI, decried the worsening security situation in the country and asked the government to act.
The labour leaders also discussed other issues, including the ongoing constitution amendment, especially the aspect that touches on the autonomy of the local government and the judiciary.
