If dem accept this peanut from Tinubu, e no go better for dem...

70k, for what precisely?

If u understand the effects of the current economy in the country, u go see the 70k as just transportation allowance...

I pity salary earners...

Tinubu, na Ogun go kill u and ur family...

Yes, very well

Especially those bullion van drivers, elite/defence drivers, and rich guys driver

But do you think driver of an average nursery school in ekiti or Niger state earns 100k?

Now the new minimum wage will force their employers to pay them above 70k
Story even when it was 30k some organisation were paying 15k. As long as you have a weka labor union nothing will change

As technology is improving, life is supposed to be easier to live.

Until we appreciate humanity in all it's awesomeness, we are not going anywhere.

Considering the economic situation and capacity of employers of labour in the country to pay, this is not bad. Left to state governments and organized private sectors, something way below 70k would be approved. Labour knows more than you and that is why they are praising the President for this kind gesture.
We can afford 150 billion jet?

That's nearly the yearly salary of 180,000 people working on minimum wage

It's very possible but that 18 year old will be a fool if he thinks he can do that simply by being a primary school dropout that will earn 70k minimum wage or a staff of a company or civil servant, he needs to start thinking of founding his company and more importantly the problem that his company will solve
Thank you for this submission, now remember that we are in a Nigeria where our schools are stuffed with outdated courses and mundane curriculum where youth are thought to go through the school in order to be qualified for WORK.
No matter how we bend it, these are still kids that need direction and they just happen to be stuck in a country where it is too easy to have a derailed destiny.
Going by your submission, 1 out of 250 will go that far and even after moving in that line of thought, bad government and unfavourable business environment awaits.

sorry, It is just me thinking out loud in concern for the future of Nigerian youth.

Yep! And there is the food pantry. the SNAP program to supplement the dietary needs of people at the lower levels, and other programs such as Medicaid for their healthcare needs. All that is geared towards helping people rise as opposed to staying below the poverty line as what you have in Nigeria. undecided

You people have been put to shame. Your prayers for protest has failed. Emergency lovers of Nigeria. Abia that could not pay 30k. Many of you couldn't buy a bag of rice then for 8k. Even if it is 100k, the FG will still pay conveniently but many state will struggle to pay.

Some Nigerian with their useless comparison, do you want to eat a bag for a month? Let be realistic in our thinking, even though they increased the minimum wages to N140,000,, I pretty sure you utter same statement thinking you know most...

Tell that to Otti still paying 15k.

Probably that’s why people are now eating from the dustbin in some part of the state like we saw in that video.

If Federal can get 70k, at least they can afford some Congo of rice. Abia workers don’t have such luxury coz they can’t even afford one bag of garri.
Don't mind him, Thier prayers of protests has failed. Pains to them, Children of hate. Emergency lovers. They wanted to hide of nothing joining protest in the east but sponsor protest in other zones. Tinubu is ahead of them anyday and anytime. We will see state who can't afford to pay 70k by month end. No politician in south east can lace Tinubu's shoe. Nigeria will surely be great again and anybody who wishes bad for Nigeria will be swallowed by Nigeria. Tony Elumelu, shortly after inec declared Tinubu winner, describe him as last man standing. Go and check the meaning. He no cry to be president but strategize is way to the top, sumounthing many obstacles.

I am not very familiar with the salary structure of university lecturers.

The next time we will see Kadoso Mutairu aka seunmsg on this forum is when the government decides not to implement the 70k thing again. Don't sha go and be buying things on credit in anticipation for salary increments, moreso that it's not sure your name will enter the pay roll again as a ghost worker.😜😜😜😜🤪🤪🤪.You know when things like this happen, the government will do screening again to verify it's real workers.

The point is there no correlation btw the minimum wage and a bag of rice.

If you compare it with the cost of living and inflation, that'll make more sense.

1 bag of rice can carry a family of 2 for 6-8months before you buy another one.

More like President Tinubu approves bag of Rice as minimum wage

Tinubu will continue to put you senseless morons in shame. Its clear YOUR FATHER never became chairman of a local government in his life talk less of a President, hence you can never understand that a President does not just throw money around to pay salaries. Its easier for you to open your WORTHLESS MOUTH and continue to criticise a government that pays salaries when you dont own a company that pays workers salaries.
