Any civil servant who gets opportunity and stole Nigeria government money to better his/her family life will not enter hell fire. It is only Haram if he stole billions but a little over half a billion should be enough to set up his family for life through businesses and investments. This is halal unless government starts paying nothing less than 400k minimum wage based on current market price[b] [/b]

This minimum wage is something that has been discussed since subsidy was removed last year.
It shows how unserious and inefficient this govt is
Builder of Lagos by foot
I won't even be surprised if the backlog is not paid
Even the wage awards have been abandoned

But the removal of fuel subsidy and consequent increment in prices of every item in the market happened in a blink of an eye.

To help arrive at a fairly acceptable minimum wage, the FG and unions can use the situation between 2011 to 2014 when Nigerians enjoyed the highest PP from 1990 to date.

In 2014, at N18k minimum wage, you could get

2 bags of rice with change or
150 litres of pms or
45kg of cooking gas...

Using that as a guide and given current prices, the minimum wage today should at least get the equivalent of those items as at 2014.

For instance, since a bag of rice now averages N75k, the minimum wage should be around N180k. So you can get your 2 bags with a little change as it was in 2014.

This is of course dependent on if this rudderless administration can keep prices relatively stable at current rates.

SadiqBabaSani:
Hahaha, I am not a fan of PBAT but he will suprise Workers.

One thing is that his Gov has met most of the agreement reached with labor after the hike in PM's price.

Before you think I am Agbadodiots check my post make I no release bazuka for you
which agreement has he met. One year after fuel subsidy, he has yet to increase minimum wage. Where is the CNG cars he promised. So tell us the agreement he has met

This minimum wage issue would further escalate the prices of goods and services in the Nigerians market.

How many States can pay this wage?

NLC should be more realistic.

Anything that concerns the wellbeing of the people will not be achieved on but if it concerns conduit pipe to Syphon money it will be implemented immediately. Lagos to Calabar coastal road come to mind

Hollyharjii:
They should have rounded the figure to #1,000,000 instead

How do you expect the FG to pay #867,000 or #437,000 as minimum wage while some state still can't afford the #30,000 in their different state...

To me, why not try to formulate policies to let the Naira have a value and let the economy be stable, I mean stability in our economy, they you can jerk the minimum wage by 75% or thereabouts. Jerking the minimum wage by 2,890% is not realistic and can never be implemented... Maybe you should kuku kill the economy and let the nation go on a recess or abrupt break

It's NLC that should formulate policies to give the naira value??
