The bribe labour collected last time got finished and they needed more. Strike will be called off next tomorrow. No need taking them serious. Meanwhile I heard the baby steps of hardship Tinubu advocated is about to be over. Adult steps hardship about to begin. Please fasten your seat belts. I know many will start foaming from their mouths as usual that I am wishing Nigeria bad. If wishes were horses beggars will ride. Fasten your seat belts I say it again. 24 Likes 2 Shares |

FG should simply state how they arrived at 60k per month. The 100% increase from 30k Is nothing. A plate of food for a family of 4, in the worst case scenario is 2k and that is 6k per day times 30 This is almost 180k. OK let's say it's 3k per day, that's 90k. No transport to work, no utility bill payment, no school fees of the kids, clothing and rent. So how do you expect the worker to cope? As NLC is insisting, let the FG breakdown the 60k offer into feeding, clothing, rent and education 106 Likes 8 Shares |

The government has been very wicked and inconsiderate. Over a year after removal of subsidy, wages are still the same With prices of everything tripled in the past year, these people come to meeting to add N3000 as if the are haggling over crayfish I don’t why politicians are so wicked 28 Likes 2 Shares |

Why is Govt so wicked?? Take this minimum wage to 100K now, and see whether labour won't bulge.. But no, you want to impoverish people much more, so that you can manipulate them during elections as usual. 18 Likes 2 Shares |

At this point, NLC has to apply wisdom and FG has to apply sincerity. Is N60,000 fair? No. FOR THE FG The FG should stop gaslighting and using media propaganda to vilify the NLC. If Labour proposed 494,000 and gave a breakdown of how they arrived at that figure, it is only reasonable that FG also break down how they arrived at 60,000. But FG is yet to do that despite several calls by NLC. That's hypocrisy at best and also the FG indirectly admitting that N60,000 waa simply arrived at without the current economic reality put into consideration. When Jonathan increased MW to 18,000 in 2011, it was equivalent to 109 dollars but 60,000 today is just a little over 40 dollars. Are you creating more wealth or poverty? At a time government increased the allocation of NASS from around 130billion to over 350 billion and proposed the increment of judicial workers' pay with each federal judge taking home allowances of over 50million per annum and salaries of over 4million, it is provocative to offer peanuts to civil servants and other workers. Even the military government in Burkina Faso are doing better than this. Tinubu himself promised a living wage. Is N60,000 a living wage with the current levels of food and headline inflation? FOR STATE GOVERNORS These criminals have long impoverished their people. Failing to implement improved wages despite increased FAAC allocations. Withholding and embezzling LG funds. Embarking on massive road construction projects for kick-backs rather than true patriotism. Imagine a State paying workers 7000 minimum wage till now. A state rich with gold. Yet the governor will be competing with Lagos or Edo State governor by riding in a 10-15 exotic cars convoy, with sirens blaring to the faces of the suffering masses. Using the commonwealth of the state to fund their opulent lifestyles. God will specially punish Soludo and any other governor that has opened his mouth to say they cannot afford to pay minimum wages. Lazy fools always waiting for sharing of monthly FAAC. They cannot think out of the box. FOR LABOUR Wisdom is profitable to direct. The elites do not want the poor to be empowered. Keeping the poor in poverty is a political weapon that helps the political class during elections. That's why Buhari couldn't lift 1 million people out of poverty despite promising to lift a 100million. That is why Tinubu promised a living wage and is now offering 60,000 that cannot fuel his car in 1 week. If the FG offers 70 or 80k, please accept it with conditions. Let the conditions be as follows: 1. Government should reintroduce the things that made civil service attractive and encouraged productivity such as low-cost mass housing scheme where civil servants can live and be paying from their monthly salaries with the option of a rent-to-own offer after several years. 2. Government must with immediate effect release the so-called CNG buses that they have been claiming they provided since last year. Enough should be be released to cater for the daily transportation needs of public and private sector workers, and indeed Nigerians in general. 3. Reintroduce gratuity into the civil service. That should be a reward for serving government for at least 10 years. I wonder why it was scrapped in the first place. It was a lifeline for many civil servants. This contributory pension is not enough to guarantee anyone a good life after retirement. Imagine not being able to contribute 1million naira after over 6 years in the public service. Imagine earning 40,000 as monthly pension for a person who retired on level 14 officer in this present economy? 4. Reintroduce very low interest loans for workers. Thankfully, the creditcorp recently launched hopes to address this but just like the audio CNG buses, we are yet to see anything. 5. Lastly, since government cannot solve the issue of insecurity within a short period of time, then the little that is being produced by farmers can be bought directly by government, thereby ensuring a reliable and constant income for the farmers. Now the government should open a food bank in all the 774 local government areas (or perhaps the LGAs not controlled by Boko Haram or Bandits) and sell these agricultural products at subsidised rates to citizens. This will force the foodstuff hoarders and wicked businessmen to force down the prices of their items. Anyone caught buying from the food bank to resell at exorbitant prices should be arrested and jailed without playing politics. Also, open the fcking borders for a period of time. Let there be massive competition in the food market. 58 Likes 9 Shares |
