– Nigerians argue that the NLC is one of Nigeria’s biggest problems after corruption
– Warn sternly against any industrial action by the unionists
Nigerians may have been fed up with the incessant industrial actions by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) which takes centre stage anytime they are aggrieved over an issue.
The planned demonstration was designed to protest against the federal government’s removal of fuel subsidy which the unionists believe is too much for the masses.
They are asking the federal government to revert to the old price of N86.50/litre as against the new fuel pump price of N145/litre.
During a Facebook Livestream, some of our respondents reacted negatively to the proposed industrial action, stating that previous strike actions did not yield any positive result. The respondents however, counseled the federal government to find a lasting solution to the country’s present challenges.
On the social media, especially on Twitter, Nigerians have also expressed their total dissatisfaction towards the proposed industrial action.
Using the hashtag #NoToNLCStrike, Nigerians asked the NLC to shelve any form of strike on the present issue as it is not likely to produce anything meaningful.
Below are some of their tweets:
Majority of those that want NLC to strike are the PDP apologists so they can say all sorts of words to the President. #NoToNLCStrike
It’s a good thing to strike because of the fuel price, but who is organizing the strike “NLC” ? Pls say #NoToNLCStrike#WhoNLCDonHelp — OSINACHI (@BITO_HOVA) May 17, 2016
At N320-N360 to a dollar, Nigerians are paying about $0.44/L for fuel.This is cheaper than what is obtainable in U.S, Asia… #notonlcstrike — akinosho abdulhakeem (@olaoluwajagaban) May 17, 2016
Fact 1: As it stands, Nigeria is ranked 12th as per cheapest price of petrol in 173 countries even with the new N145/L price. #notonlcstrike

NLC should dialogue with the Govt instead of the planned nationwide strike for price reversal and retention of fuel subsidy. #NotoNLCStrike
The masses would suffer if there is actually a Strike!!! Say #NoToNLCStrike — #SixFiveNationDotCom (@sixfivenation) May 17, 2016
