The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) went ahead with its planned protest over insecurity in parts of the country, despite a late-night meeting between President Bola Tinubu and the union’s leaders aimed at averting the action.

In anticipation of the protests, police deployed tactical units and placed commands on high alert in major cities such as Lagos and Abuja. The demonstrations disrupted activities in Enugu, reflecting the scale of the nationwide mobilization.
