The Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, has told Nigerians not to lose hope amid broken promises, exploitation and pervasive corruption.
The President of NLC, Joe Ajaero, disclosed this in a statement on Monday to mark Nigeria’s 64th Independence Day celebrations.
He commended Nigerian workers for their sacrifice, resilience and robust spirit despite betrayals by the country’s political class.
“We urge the downtrodden Nigerians who bear the marks or burden of these broken promises, exploitation and corruption to not give up hope on their country,” said the NLC president.
His comments come as Nigeria is set to celebrate its liberation from colonialism on October 1, 1960.
However, post-independence, Nigerians have been beleaguered by high inflation, energy costs, infrastructural deficits, lack of adequate electricity supply, and naira crisis at the foreign exchange markets without lasting solutions.
