The Trade Union Congress of Nigeria has expressed concern over the state of insecurity, stating that kidnapping remains a thriving activity for criminal elements. This has been ongoing for over a decade, undermining efforts to attract foreign investment. The union has urged the government to increase its efforts to combat insecurity.

The TUC President, Comrade Festus Osifo, also discussed the need to strengthen the naira, suggesting a rate of ₦700 to ₦800 to one US dollar. This is seen as a way to address the rising cost of goods, including petrol prices.

Further details on the union's concerns and proposals are available from the original source.
