After a nationwide protest on Wednesday, the organised Labour has agreed to suspend further action on its opposition to fuel subsidy removal.
This was a fallout of a meeting between President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the representatives of the workers.
At the meeting were the Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, President, Joe Ajaero and his Trade Union Congress, TUC, counterpart, Festus Osifo.
DAILY POST reports that the workers earlier in the day held protests across the country against the removal of fuel subsidy by the present administration.
The protests came after weeks of deadlocked negotiations between them and the government.
They resorted to protests after a National Industrial Court barred them from proceeding with a nationwide strike which was to commence on Wednesday, June 7, 2023.
Few hours after the protests were held across the country, the labour leaders were at the Aso Rock Presidential villa where they met with President Tinubu.
DAILY POST gathered that they felt satisfied with the promises made by the President and are now ready to stay further actions.
At the meeting, President Tinubu was said to have assured the workers that the Port-Harcourt refinery would certainly commence production by December this year.
