The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), says the organised labour will soon come out with a position on the recent increase in prices of various essential commodities, including fuel and electricity.
NLC President, Ayuba Wabba, spoke with Newsmen in Lagos on Saturday in reaction to the increase in the prices of petrol and electricity.
The Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency (PPPRA) announced that the deport pump price of premium motor spirit (petrol) has been increased to N151, 60 per litre from N145 with effect from Sept 2.
Also, electricity tariff was increased effective Sept. 1, by the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) from N30.23 per one kwh to N62.33.
Wabba, who spoke on the issues, said the organised labour would not protest until the Central Working Committee (CWC) met and agreed on appropriate action.
