 The federal government has pleaded with the organized label to suspend the proposed strike on Wednesday saying that the government is doing everything to ensure that a hardship occasioned by the petrol subsidy removal is sorted out. However, the organized label asked the federal government to scale up all its policies and programs aimed at elevating the sufferings of Nigerians as a result of the fuel subsidy removal. After the meeting with the federal government representatives, the label leaders said even though they have listened and read carefully the interventions and strategies being suggested by this administration, they expect more in corresponding to the anonymity of the issues at hand. What we have been advocating for on the part of label is wage award that doesn't have much bureaucracies, that doesn't have much, you don't have enough issues around the law, because the law that prescribed minimum wage said 5 years until you are made that no other thing can kick in, but we said for the immediate, let government come out just as some state government has announced that it will pay 40,000, some say 50,000, so they should do something like that. We have also heard some state at all come in and saying that they are going to pay PMS allowance of XYZ amount, so those are the wage awards that we were thinking and we are pushing governments to do. We also made a discussion by saying the 3,000 bosses being proposed to be made available is not sufficient, if you divide it by the number of states we have, it won't take us anywhere. So these discussions are ongoing and the government came with an appeal of shifting the intended protest tomorrow, we said no this is not something that for us to discuss here because we have other organs of the union that we have to go back and look at it critically because the truth is that the truth remain facts that every Nigerian out there is within boiling out there to see what we come out of this very meeting. Equally pleaded with him that bosses should be put across all our high institution to enable us cope with the fuel subsidy period which has approved that. I am sure that you people know yesterday with that release we were able to get that then. The next thing we are looking at is the issue of the palliative, how it goes to make sure that we are able to get it right. The federal government however appealed to the labor unions to shelve the planned protest. Basically we laid out the plans and the interventions of Mr. President as you all heard in his broadcast yesterday, we made it clear that this was just Mr. President's initial rollout and interventions and that conversations will be ongoing as we go along and we appealed to Labour. We did appeal to Labour to call up their protest for tomorrow. We found listening ears here and they did agree that they all accepted that Mr. President's broadcast was a welcome development and that they will go back home to talk to the other leaders that are not present today. Meanwhile on whether the planned protest has been caught off the Labour leaders said they would be meeting tonight to decide on the way forward and take a definite position.
