Angry Protesters on Wednesday stormed the National Assembly Complex in Abuja and pulled down the first gate to gain entrance into the premises.

The organised labour, tled by the leaders of
Joe Ajaero of the Nigeria Labour Congress and Festus Osifo of the Trade Union Congress jas earlier asked security operatives stationed at the legislative building to open the gate to allow the workers to express their displeasure.

Following the failure of the security officials to adhere, angry protesters pulled down the gate and subsequently moved to the second gate of the Assembly Complex.

The Organised Labour including the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Trade Union Congress (TUC) and their affiliate unions, today, kicked off a protest in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, and other states of the Federation including Lagos, Abia, Plateau, Kaduna, Kano, Rivers, Zamfara, Katsina, Cross River, Ebonyi, Enugu, Kwara, Ogun, Imo, Ondo, and Edo.

In their hundreds, the protesters convened at the Unity Fountain from where they marched to the NASS Complex.
