The Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, has demanded that the national minimum wage be increased to N200,000.
NLC members made the call while protesting the removal of the subsidy on fuel.
The protesters converged on the Ikeja under-bridge in Lagos State, where they lamented the high cost of living caused by the hike in the pump price of fuel.
In a new development, the leaders of the 2 organised labour however meet President Bola Tinubu at the Aso Rock Villa, Abuja.
The meeting comes just hours after the unions followed through on their plans to protest the economic hardship triggered by the discontinuance of petrol subsidy, as Tinubu announced on May 29.
