The Nigeria Labour Congress issued an ultimatum to the Federal Government regarding prices and wages. Labour leaders stated that the removal of the petrol subsidy and rising costs have severely eroded workers’ purchasing power. The Federal Government, through the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, called for a balance between worker demands and the nation's fiscal capacity.
