The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has directed all workers across the country to protest against the lingering naira scarcity at all the offices of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) nationwide starting next week.
NLC President, Joe Ajaero issued the directive at a media parley at Labour House in Abuja on Wednesday.
Ajaero said the move becames necessary following the expiration of a one-week ultimatum given to the CBN to make cash available for Nigerians.
The scarcity of naira has continued unabated despite the recent directive by the CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele to commercial banks to make the old naira notes available to Nigerians in compliance with the Supreme Court order.
