In a video released on social media, Shell Petroleum workers were seen protesting against the fuel subsidy issues and the general economic challenges they face.

The workers, grappling with the falling value of the naira and the soaring cost of living, are demanding higher salaries and hazard allowances from the company.

The major concern for the Shell Petroleum workers is the fuel subsidy, which has led to a staggering 200% increase in the cost of living in Nigeria. This rise in prices has made it impossible for many workers to make ends meet with their current salaries, leading to financial hardships and a growing sense of frustration.

Amidst the turmoil, the protesting workers are demanding that Shell Petroleum increase their salaries and hazard allowances.
