The Joint National Public Service Negotiating Council, Trade Union Side, has demanded a reduction of petrol prices to ₦500 per litre, an immediate wage award and an upward review of salaries and allowances.
The workers also called for the immediate constitution of a committee to negotiate a new national minimum wage ahead of January 2027.
The Nigeria Labour Congress has backed the demands, describing them as legitimate responses to worsening economic pressure on workers and their dependants.
The workers' demands come amid continued concerns over the effect of petrol prices on transportation, food prices and household purchasing power.
