The President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Joe Ajaero, led protesters to the National Assembly complex on Tuesday, voicing their grievances regarding the high cost of living in the country.
The NLC protest targeted the National Assembly, aiming to communicate their concerns directly to the legislative arm.
The protesters expressed their dissatisfaction with the rising cost of living and its impact on Nigerians, with chants of “ole, ole, ole”, a Nigerian slang meaning ‘thieves’.
