Some states will fix their own between 10k to 15k. While they will loot pass the ones paying 30k to 40k. 34 Likes 1 Share |

Why can the national assembly also work towards making states to have control over its natural resources so that they can have more money to execute projects and also pay a reasonable minimum wage 8 Likes |

Not a bad idea, Lagos, Rivers, kano were able to pay the minimum wages easily while some state were struggling, hope state govt won't abuse the power. 2 Likes |

I think that would be better because all states are not equal when it comes to income generation and revenues, cost of living, and other indices. We all know some states are richer/poorer than others. Therefore each state should be free decide its own fiscal policies, including wages. It can go a long way in resolving the issue of some states owing salaries, because it is better to pay what you can afford as a state government, than to owe workers salaries that you can't afford to pay. ![]() 16 Likes 2 Shares |

NLC and TUC should reject this outrightly. Minimum wage as the name imply, simple means minimum payable to a worker in a country. It should be a national thing, while states can add to it. The sponsor is either ignorant or hate the people. 5 Likes |

This is actually logical of them. A nationally minimum wage is unnecessary and impractical when you consider the cost of living, productivity and income levels between states. Wages are a contract between the employer and employee anyway. Seriously what percentage of the polulation make minimum wage anyway? From what I understand it's usually entry level employees. 7 Likes 2 Shares

I sincerely think the government should make a legislation that will make minimum wage apply to the private employers of labor as well. tamdun:Salaries are too basic to be crying foul about IGR. Other factors, like the cost of living, should be considered when arguing for how low or high the minimum wage of a state should be. |

How much is the minimum wage that some of these governors can't pay? Check very well you will discover most of them have more than 50 aides on their payroll and most of them are contributing virtually nothing yet they collect huge amount of money as salaries! 3 Likes |

Who else feels like all these headlines are redundant, like the govt publishes nonsense like this once in while to make us feel like they're actually doing any work. "FG to lift..." "Reps to implement.." "FG to commence..." "Presidency to execute..."etc. All empty promises and statements. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Muhammad said , “ Let every state pay according to what it has. But labour always looks at it from the point of ‘you want to weaken the organised Labour so that the government will always have a say’. Every labour union in the states should negotiate with the respective state governments . ” This actually pretty clever of him. He'll weaken labor unions by simply devolving state power. The labor unions did threaten strikes and forced the federal government to pay 30k before the election. Now that will be much harder if they have to fight every different states at different times with different budgets. If they're smart they'll ram this through. It's a pretty self serving piece of legislation. It would probably effect public support for these raises since benefits are limited to particular groups but spread to everyone. 3 Likes |
