Labour parties suspend strike

The ongoing strike which started last week has ended this afternoon. The Labour parties involved made this announcement around 1pm to the Press in Abuja. A liter of fuel now goes for N97, instead of N65. A lot of Nigerians have however expressed their dissatisfaction in this.

Military men scattered all over Lagos, set to disrupt this morning protest

Some military men believed to be sent by the President are located at some strategic places in Lagos State ready to disrupt the protest scheduled for this morning. According to sources, the instruments used at the Ojota and Falomo protest grounds have been destroyed by the military men. They are also operating at check points, to ensure there are no materials relating to the occupy Nigeria protest in any car.

Strike continues on Monday, as NLC, FG could not reach an agreement


The meeting held yesterday night between the Federal Government, NLC and TUC has yet again ended in deadlock. The Labour leaders and FG were unable to reach an agreement as the meeting ended. They have however said it’s N65 or nothing, asking Nigerians to continue with the strike on Monday.
May God help this Nation.

NLC, TUC & JAT declares weekend as strike free days

Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Trade Union Congress (TUC) and Joint Action Front (JAF) have all commended Nigerians for turning out in their millions since Monday January 9, 2012, to protest the increase in the price of PMS (Petrol). 
They have however declared this weekend, Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th January, 2012, to be a strike, protest and rally-free days.

DAY 5: Meeting between FG and Labour ends in Deadlock

The meeting held yesterday behind closed doors between Labour parties and the Federal Government ended in deadlock. The two parties could not reach an agreement and so the strike continues. Another meeting would be held tomorrow, Saturday.
We hope GEJ’s Government will do what Nigerians are demanding and also remove fuel subsidy, so we can continue with our day to day activities. It’s bad enough we are in darkness now and most people have started complaining about being broke.

Occupynigeria: Day 1 of strike

Apologies for not posting since the strike began. We had to #Occupynigeria. Nigeria was on fire today! The masses went out in their thousands to protest peacefully, but alas the Nigerian Police won’t let them be. They were accused of shooting a protester dead today in Ogba, Lagos state in a peaceful protest. The man we learnt begged for his life, but was shot in the long run. And many more causalities were recorded today. Pictures of him when you continue.
