NLC Orders Jonathan To Revert Petrol Price To N65
The Leadership of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) has ordered the federal government of Nigeria to reverse the Petrol price to N65 per liter.
President Jonathan has said the implementation of the palliative measures proposed to cushion the effect of the removal was no longer feasible because it was based on 100% removal of subsidy on local consumption of fuel.
“This Subsidy Removal Programme (un-SURE) is developed with the expectation that we were going to completely deregulate the Downstream sector of the oil industry, the 100 per cent removal of subsidy… we will still come up with a document based on what we get,” he said while addressing chieftains of PDP during their NEC meeting in Abuja on Monday.
Backing his decision, the Leader of the Senate, Victor Ndoma-Egba said; “The President said he wanted to remove subsidy, Nigerians said they don’t want it removed. Now that he was not able to realize his plan, where will he get the money to carry out that policy?
My Opinion: These NLC people should stay one place. After they have sold the consciences of Nigerians to N97 naira per litre, and wasting our protests, now they are beginning to stir more trouble. The worst is when the TUC chairman Mr. Esele Took an appointment from the federal government of Cabals.
