With contemplation of payment of school fees in tertiary institutions and increases in privately-owned ones in addition to other costs\/tariffs on the way, life in Nigeria could truly be Hobbesian.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe market economies which the Market Fundamentalists seek to emulate, have in place socio-economic safeguards which we do not have.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn light of this, our advice is that this proposed tariff hike should be shelved for our collective safety.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has kicked against the alleged plan to increase electricity tariff by 40 per cent on July 1.
