LAGOS, Nigeria ? The leader of a Nigerian labor union says it failed to reach a compromise with the government to end a paralyzing strike over fuel costs.
Nigeria Labor Congress president Abdulwaheed Omar told journalists outside the presidential palace: "We have not reached a compromise."
That means a midnight strike looms for oil production in Africa's most populous nation.
If production is halted, it could cause oil futures to rise, potentially costing U.S. drivers an additional $36 million a day at the pumps.
Tens of thousands of people have taken to the streets across Nigeria to protest the government ending the subsidy Jan. 1.
