Taraba state and Adamawa state are currently the only two states who have approved the new minimum wage apart from Lagos and Edo state
There's no approval yet from the Taraba State Government, the governor only spoke about his willingness and readiness to pay.

Any Edo State aspirant who is not ready to make a commitment concerning the minimum wage should not be voted for.

Kwara Governor who happened to be the Chairman of NGF is indifferent he neither agree nor reject the minimum wage, to my dismay he had set up committee to prepare consequential adjustment without a pronouncement of the amount he intends to pay.

This can't be the full list
Besides, announcing it doesn't mean they'll really pay or implement it as is should be
Even the FG is still dragging foot on its implementation.
Na NLC dey carry for head like gala
And anyone with sense knows that until FG starts implementing before states will follow suit
What of Edo that has been paying for the past umpteen months?
