Minimum Wage: Strike Begins As National Assembly's Intervention Fails by coputa(m): 6:49am On Jun 03 |
The organised labour Sunday insisted that its indefinite strike would begin today as planned following the federal government’s refusal to increase the minimum wage above N60,000.https://dailytrust.com/minimum-wage-strike-begins-as-n-assemblys-intervention-fails/ 5 Likes 1 Share |

Please be very careful as you move around today. It's better to be safe than sorry. Taking today off to be sure of the severity of the strike wouldn't kill rather than wasting resources or encountering thugs. Today will be a good Day hopefully. 21 Likes 1 Share |

Nigeria should have left all this strike nonsense behind, high time our leaders begin to put things in place, cost of everything has risen but minimum wage remains the same. Even those who earn 200k,300k per month are bitterly complaining 16 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Minimum Wage: Strike Begins As National Assembly's Intervention Fails by MrIcredible: 7:48am On Jun 03 |
Good. No good roads. No constant electricity. No security. No affordable food etc THESE AEE JUST VERY SIMPLE AND BASIC AMENITIES THAT MOST COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD HAVE SOLVED. It's a big shame that Nigeria the idìotic giant of Africa don't have all these yet because of greedy people and bad leaders. No basic amenities. No reason salary, but you don't want workers to go on strike. BASTARƊS 3 Likes 3 Shares |

Why did you allow inflation rise? Why not allow low prices and pay low wages? All the subsidy money that has increased revenue allocation to states have been eroded by inflation meaning it is a useless move. THIS GOVERNMENT IS JUST PLAIN STEWPID 17 Likes |

Laslas ..na #65,000 these NLC and TUC go gree... They are doing shakara make e no be like say dem no fight.. Anyone following Labour negotiations in this country can guess... I arrived at #65,000 because, the current minimum wage is #30,000 and FGN has been paying wage award of #35,000 initially...so, add the two ..that's #65,000. NLC and TUC never gree because proposed NGN 60,000 is less than the NGN 65,000 Nonsense and ingredients 54 Likes |

Why do I have a feeling that NLC/TUC are not serious? They will call off the strike as they have always done in the past. I know their demands seems outrageous and won't be met. I remember,ber growing up as a child, when you hear NLC is going on strike, people will start stocking up food stuff in their houses a day to the event. On the day of the strike, public and private organisations join the strike and you won't see any vehicle movement on the road. It worked because everyone thinks and believe in the same idea. But today, even among the NLC/TUC, they are divided. The people whom they are tagging along for the strike has seen NLC/TUC call off strike last minute more than 100 times. Ask an average Nigerian, "shey strike dey today?" His response will be "Abeg na dem sabi wetin dem dey do, me I dey commot go my own". Even WAEC released a memo that exams are holding today, my question, is "How do they expect children to get to school safely if they believe there will be strike today?" Everyone knows NLC/TUC is a joke! 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: Minimum Wage: Strike Begins As National Assembly's Intervention Fails by Whalis: 7:52am On Jun 03 |
I have said this before. It doesn't matter how much government agreed to pay workers as our leaders are wicked and know how to get back to us. For instance they can agree to pay 100k minimum today but go back to devalue naira making the 100k valueless. Minimum wage in 1980 was about #100. #1 was $1.50 . So to say #100 was $150. If workers had benchmarked their pay against dollar the minimum pay today would have been @$150. 7 Likes |

There is no middle class in Nigeria anymore. You either on the verge of poor or you already knee deep in poverty. APC have never put in any policy to favour the ordinary Nigerian. 50,000 handouts for 6 months won't do sh*t for the economy. They created detrimental policies and removed subsidies on multiple front, but they will never CUT GOVERNMENT SPENDING. This one policy can save trillion for innovation infrastructure transformation. Inflation can't be fought one-sided. 4 Likes 1 Share |
