THE Coalition of South East Youth Leaders (COSEYL), a sociopolitical group, says it will mobilize its members to support the protest by the National Labour Congress (NLC).

The Group’s President-General, Mr Goodluck Ibem, and Public Secretary, Mr Okey Nwaoru, jointly said this in a statement made available to newsmen in Owerri, on Wednesday.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the NLC has announced plans to protest the removal of fuel subsidy and the attendant economic hardship on workers.

The group said that Nigeria’s economy was dependent on fuel and other petroleum products to function and any decision or policy that increases the price of petroleum products would affect Nigerians.

“We shall support the protest to save Nigerians from the hardship they are currently facing,” the group said. (NAN)
