Leaders of the organised labour comprising the Nigeria Labour (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress of Nigeria (TUC) met with President Bola Tinubu at the Aso Rock Villa, Abuja on Wednesday.
The meeting came just hours after the unions followed through on their plans to protest the economic hardship triggered by the discontinuance of petrol subsidy, as Tinubu announced on May 29.
The labour leaders, who exited the Villa about 30 minutes after they arrived at 5:38 pm, said the President made some commitments to address some issues which need immediate attention.
They said they would report to their executive committees where a decision would be taken on the ongoing protest, adding that Labour would conduct its National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting on Thursday and all the issues would be considered.
