The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has rejected the new pump price of petrol announced by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Limited (NNPCL).

On Wednesday, NNPC Limited directed its outlets nationwide to sell fuel to consumers between N480 and N570 per litre.

NNPCL’s Chief Corporate Communications Officer, Garba Deen Muhammad, had said the price adjustment was made in line with “current market realities”.

But President of the NLC, Comrade Joe Ajaero, while addressing journalists at Labour House, Abuja, on Wednesday, said NLC would not accept that, noting that the fixing of price is not what government could do unilaterally.
