Fuel scarcity conspiracy to remove subsidy – Wabba

President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Ayuba Wabba has alleged that the emergence of queues in filling stations are part of conspiracy theories to force subsidy down the throat of Nigerians.

The NLC had directed its affiliates to mobilise for nationwide protests following the proposed plan by the Federal Government to remove fuel subsidy.

However, following the decision of the government to drop the subsidy removal plans, the NLC rescind its decisions on January 25, 2022.

There has been increasing queues in Lagos and Abuja with black marketers flooding major highways with petrol in cans, selling to motorists on the roadside

Speaking at the Nigeria Union of Teachers solemn assembly on Tuesday, the NLC President questioned why there was fuel scarcity immediately after the government stated that it had shelved its decision to remove the fuel subsidy.

Wabba also spoke on the proposed plan of the National Assembly to remove labour unions from the exclusive list.

He noted that labour issues were presently domiciled in the Second Schedule, Legislative Powers, Part 1, Exclusive list, Item 34.
