NLC alleges assassination plot - Nigeria
Abuja - Amid another looming face-off between labour and the Nigerian government over increase in fuel prices, the former alleged on Thursday that the government had plans to kill its national president Adams Oshiomhole.

Since June, when the Nigerian government announced a raise in the pump prices of petroleum products for the second time in the year, labour had continued to call workers out on strike.

The third price increase, which government termed as a complete deregulation of the downstream sector of the petroleum industry, was effected in October, leading to a call for another national strike which was called off at the last minute.
