Nigerian workers have announced February 4, 2025, as the date to embark on a nationwide protest against the 50 percent telecommunications services tariff hike in the country.
The Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday.
This comes as the Nigerian Communications Commission on January 20, 2025, announced the approval for telecom companies to hike services tariffs by 50 percent.
The approval has sparked a wide tide of rejection by Nigerians, including the NLC.
In an update to press home their opposition against the telecom tariff hike, the NLC vowed to shut down the country through a nationwide protest.
This is part of its mobilisation against the planned 50 percent telecom tariff hike.
Charmingpro reported that the nationwide protest was agreed on at the ongoing National Administrative Council, NAC, of the labour union
