The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has threatened the Federal Government in response to the Nigeria Labour Congress’s (NLC) planned protest.
SERAP has threatened to take the Buhari administration to court if it tries to prevent the planned protest from taking place.
The body stated that a solidarity protest in support of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, should be permitted.
SERAP explained in a tweet that protesting is a fundamental right of Nigerians.

“BREAKING: The Buhari administration should allow the Nigeria Labour Congress to go ahead with its protest over the prolonged strike of the Academic Staff Union of Universities.
“Protest is a fundamental right. We’ll see in court if the administration attempts to stop the protest,” SERAP tweeted.
ASUU has been on strike for about six months over a disagreement with the Federal Government.
While the Federal Government wants the use of IPPIS, the body insists on the use of UTAS for payment of university lecturers.
