“You Betrayed Our Hope”: NLC Slams President Tinubu Amid Escalating Insecurity Crisis
The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has publicly accused President Bola Ahmed Tinubu of betraying the hope of Nigerians, citing worsening national insecurity and growing hardship under his administration.
In a bold statement reported by @SaharaReporters, the NLC expressed deep disappointment, accusing the President of failing to deliver on promises of safety, stability, and relief — especially for working-class citizens already burdened by inflation and a struggling economy.
“Tinubu promised renewed hope, but what Nigerians are facing is renewed fear,” the NLC declared.
“From the north to the south, Nigerians are not safe in their homes, on the roads, or even at their workplaces.”
The union cited:
-
Escalating kidnappings and banditry.
-
Attacks on farmers and schoolchildren.
-
Persistent power grid failures and fuel scarcity.
-
Crippling economic policies affecting daily survival.
The NLC’s frustration isn’t just political — it’s personal for millions of Nigerians.
They’re demanding:
-
Immediate government response to national security threats.
-
Transparency on how federal funds are being used.
-
Urgent relief for workers facing salary delays, job cuts, and cost-of-living hikes.
Citizens on social media echoed the union’s anger, calling out the gap between campaign promises and current realities. Many say they feel abandoned, unheard, and exploited — a betrayal of the hope they once placed in the new administration.
