Subsidy: Ondo Workers return to office after protest

Ondo workers returned to their offices after joining the Organised Labour protest on Wednesday.

The peaceful protest began at the Alagbaka NLC Secretariat and terminated at the Governor’s office also in Alagbaka.

Ondo NLC Chairman, Mr Victor Amoko, who backed removal of fuel subsidy said the effect was biting hard on the masses.

State Chairman of the TUC, Mr Clement Fatuase, urged the Federal Government to implement people-centred agreements reached with organised labour unions to avoid further crippling the economy.

“So, this is a march for the survival of Nigeria and Nigerians, we say no to anti-people policies. We want President to listen to our plight,” Fatuase noted.

Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, who was represented by Mr Dare Aragbaye, the Special Adviser on Union Matters, said he would convey the demands of unions to President Bola Tinubu.
