The Organised Labour has said the national social register for poor and vulnerable citizens created by the Muhammadu Buhari administration is suspicious and unreliable.
Naija News reports that the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Joe Ajaero, stated this on Tuesday at a meeting between the leadership of the organised labour and the Senate leadership led by Godswill Akpabio.
Ajaero advised President Bola Tinubu not to use the same template of disbursement by the Buhari government to share the $800 million loan being sought by the government from the World Bank for poor Nigerians. 
He said: “Nothing is yet to happen on the issue of $800 million projected to be borrowed. We have not perfected the list of the people who will benefit from it.
“We should not follow the record that was used in 2019 because we have our doubts on that record, and no indices have been put forward to dictate those that are termed poor.”
In his remarks, the Senate President commended the NLC and the Trade Union Congress (TUC), and other unions for their patience following the removal of the fuel subsidy.
He told the labour leaders that although President Tinubu had saved N1 trillion by removing the subsidy regime, the present administration inherited a debt of over N30 trillion.
“But be rest assured that effect of fuel subsidy removal being felt by workers and, in fact, Nigerians would be ameliorated very soon by the federal government,” he said.
