The Nigeria Labour Congress-NLC and the Trade Union Congress-TUC will today protest against the hike in electricity tariff at offices of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission-NERC and Distribution Companies-DisCos nationwide.

This was made known in a joint statement by NLC’s Acting General Secretary, Chris Uyot and his TUC counterpart, Anka Hassan.

According to the statement, the labour unions said they were protesting to the NERC and Disco’s office after a Sunday reversal deadline failed.

The protest action followed a hike in the tariff for electricity consumers who enjoy at least 20 hours of daily power supply.
