Protests have begun by members of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) against the withdrawal of the petrol subsidy.
Protesters have gathered at Lagos’s Ikeja under-bridge.
Last Wednesday, the NLC gave the federal government a seven-day deadline to remove all “anti-poor” and “insensitive” measures.
The union also urged civil society organizations (CSOs) and its state councils to join the August 2 nationwide strike to protest the country’s rising cost of living.
The federal government’s efforts to halt the planned strike and demonstration were futile.
