    3. Can i ask NLC a question? So if federal govt increase salaries in order for you to stop the strike, when the fuel price drops drastically, can the federal govt also reduce your salaries then?

    7. I have to say you must be a very stupid person. I'm guessing your life must be great because wishing Buhari or any government to fail means suffering for its citizens. So meaning you want the people of Nigeria including your loved ones to suffer. You are such an dummy....

  20. @Nnenne George. It wrong for you to call anyone that stands with Buhari as a mad man. We still have freedom of association and expression in this country.

  21. Why NLC allowed NUPENG And PENGASON to be at the meeting? They must not be at the meeting ,because they said they agreed with the new pump price ( N145/litre).

  22. Am not against d strike,but as the saying goes,fool me once shame on you,fool me twice d shame is on me. Experience has shown that removal of fuel subsidy has bin a scam btw government and labour.eachtime they increase fuel,they claim they are removing subsidy,labour barks or goes on strike,d price is never returned to its original price,hence d claim that subsidy is still been paid,another administration comes and does d same tin and d circle continues and we keep hearing payment of subsidy and subsidy removal and fuel increase and strike and on and on. We should stop allowing this people take us for a ride.there is no basis for arriving at #145 if not that they have factor labours strike into it,then it wil be reduced to what they initially had in mind,and still claim they are paying subsidy.(if labour is open to discussions,means there is room for shifting grounds and compromises) PLS IF THEY KNW THEY CANNOT GET THE PRICE BACK TO #86.50,THEY SHOULD STOP THIS SCAM CALLED STRIKE,AND LETS STOP HEARING SUBSIDY ONCE AND FOR ALL.

  30. NLC leader Ayuba and cabals on their own. Only them waka come. Hahahahaha!
    (1) PENGASSAN say no to NLC strike.
    (2) NUPENG tactically removed themselves from any planned strike.
    (3) The umbrella body for private sector employers in the country, Nigeria Employers’ Consultative Association, NECA faulted the plan by labour to go on strike, urging the private sector employees to ignore the strike directive and go about their normal businesses.
    (4) National Association of Aircraft Pilots and Engineers (NAAPE) support the federal government’s resolve to fully deregulate the downstream sector of the oil and gas industry.
    (5) Lagos Chamber of Commerce say no to NLC induced strike
    (6) Abuja Chamber of commence support Federal Government Action.
