The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has decided to suspend its two-day nationwide protest midway, citing achieved objectives on the first day.
The protest, initiated by NLC and allied unions, aimed to address concerns over the soaring cost of living, inflation, insecurity, and general hardship in the country.

Following an evening communique on Tuesday, the union announced the suspension, granting the Nigerian federal government a fresh two-week ultimatum, expiring on March 13, 2024, to fulfill its promises.
