Ugbaja stated that although they welcomed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s announced measures, they found them lacking in comprehensiveness.

The organized labour intends to consult with the members they represent to reach a consensus on the next course of action before the end of the day.

Additionally, the Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, described the organized labour as a listening organization, stating that they may not proceed with their planned protests after hearing President Tinubu’s national broadcast. Gbajabiamila expressed optimism that the labor leaders would engage in further conversations and discussions following the President’s interventions.
