The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) President Joe Ajaero has said the response of the Federal Government and not the use of force will determine the duration of the ongoing protest.
Ajaero disclosed this while speaking in an interview with Channels TV at Unity Fountain in the FCT on Wednesday.
The Nation reports the Presidents of the Nigeria Labour Congress(NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) are leading subsidy removal protests in Abuja.
He said: “It’s in the interest of the NLC to determine based on the response of the state whether the protest should be for today, tomorrow, or next, or till thy kingdom come.
“It is not by using forces to stop people from expressing their views.”
They are protesting against recent fuel price hike, tuition fees hike in public schools and withheld salaries of lecturers and workers in universities.
