Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Presidency slammed the president of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, Joe Ajaero, for saying that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu betrayed labour leaders by increasing the petrol pump price.<\/p>\n

Ajaero had alleged that labour accepted the N70,000 national minimum wage based on an understanding that the pump price of PMS would not be increased.<\/p>\n

Reacting to Ajaero\u2019s allegation, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Print Media, Abdulaziz Abdulaziz, on his verified X handle, @Abdulfagge, said he was in the last two meetings where Tinubu met with Labour leaders, noting there was nowhere an offer was made in exchange of fuel price hike.<\/p>\n

Abdulaziz described Ajaero\u2019s claims as \u201cdirty politics\u201d aimed at manipulating the emotions of Nigerians.<\/p>\n

He said that he attended the two meetings and no offer was made in exchange for a fuel price hike, contradicting Ajaero\u2019s assertions.<\/p>\n

\u201cI sat through the two meetings President @officialABAT had with Labour leaders on minimum wage. At neither of the meetings was an offer made in exchange for the fuel price hike.<\/p>\n

\u201cAjaero is once again playing his dirty politics with the emotions of Nigerians,\u201d Abdulaziz said.<\/p>\n
