Organised Labour yesterday, stated that the latest hike in the pump price of petrol was pushing Nigerians to the limit.

It also warned the Federal Government against what it described as a surprised and unexpected reaction of the people to the frequent hike in the price of the product.

One of the organized Labour leaders who pleaded anonymous issued the warnings in an interview with newsmen in Lagos.

The source equally advised the government to be wary of the silence of Nigerians in the midst of excruciating hardship and misery being inflicted on them stressing that even a goat can bite when pushed to the wall.

Labour’s warning came after the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) disclosed that its members wait for days to load petrol from Dangote Refinery in Lagos, despite paying N40 billion to the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL).
