How many private companies can pay 100k as minimum wages??

Of what use is this statement from Atedo Peterside?

News paper allowance is 1.2 million. This is madness nau, how much is news paper? Is it world paper they are buying abi all the countries papers in the world. This is pure crime to Nigerians citizens.

This strike is for the survival of all citizen

Perhaps this will pressure govt to bring down the cost of living. 60k is not acceptable, 100k can be managed with other palliatives

The Nigerian minimum wage negotiations were going to be unnecessarily difficult because FG "poisoned" the atmosphere for responsible negotiations by approving a reckless N90bn Hajj Subsidy, Luxury SUVs for Legislators etc thereby creating the false impression that FG was rich

We are too emotional and sentimental in this country. Y'all shouting bogus allocation for lawmakers, what is the percentage of their money in our national income to what workers are taking every month? You can't even compare the ratio. Political office holders throughout the country don't even make up to 3 percent of total government workers in the country. Only heavy workers wages can sink the country into unrecoverable debt and total collapse, politicians take home is too megre to achieve similar purpose. Criticise wisely fellow compatriots

How many are these lawmakers compare to the total number of the government workers to clear yourself of this your write up.. cam you please calculate the percentage for this too and then do the comparison.

I come in peace ✌️

Exactly... This is the crux of the matter. If FG had said no hajj this year because of money and use former vehicles because we don't have money, I tell you Labour will be grateful if FG pays 40k minimum wage 😀

Subsidising Hajj is not what the Nigerian government should even bother itself with. Even though it's a crucial pillar in Islam, it's done ONLY WHEN YOU HAVE THE MEANS to do so. The irresponsible government spending hugely to subsidize Hajj for people who already can afford it. Nigeria should think of having a vision that all Nigerians should know about even when they are awakened from slumber

I'm a Christian, but I must say the Government did not really subsidize Hajj - it's just that their communication apparatus is just too dumb to carry Nigerians along. The fact is that Hajj fee is dollar based and was fixed and many intending Pilgrims have already paid or been sponsored by their respective State Governments before the FX crashed badly. The repercussion is that the amount already paid by prospective pilgrims became inadequate due to the new naira equivalent of the Hajj fee dollar FX. At that point, the FG and state governments controlling pilgrims became obliged to make up the differential, as asking the pilgrims to pay more will result in serious political and religious backlash (two very critical issues in our jurisdiction).

One might blame the Government for getting involved with pilgrimage in the first place, but these people are actually ambassadors of the country in a way and government ought to have a sort of control over their behaviour out there. More so as the President is looking forward to securing Foreign Direct Investment from the Arabs. We cannot expect our government to show nonchalance to one of the very important products of the Saudi Government.

NLC aint realistic, i thought they are learned people, what will be become of economy if INFLATION ADD up to STRUGGLE?
is it everyone working with FG<STATE GOVT? what will become of private enterprice people? market traders, farmers?
make un forget ur candidate wey no ENTER 2023, pray for better 3031jare


the Citizen sef Responsible? they are just the reflection US down here, but they are up there: the DIFFERENCE

exactly my Argument, Nigerians are jus naturally self Centred

I don't think the NLC is really bent on the minimum wage Increase. They probably want the FG to reduce the electricity tariff. If the govt reverts to a reasonable price, labour will probably listen. The laziness of the FG is very annoying. Fuel, electricity tariff increase, skyrocketing food inflation is just too much to bear...

My only problem with this minimum wage issue is that it only favours civil servants. Those of us in the private sector, and those who have no sector are suffering the hardship brought by the strike. Ones labour get what they want they'll move on.

It's never to late to ask for what you want if you really want to benefit. Make your voice heard by demanding for an amendment to the minimum wage act to Include more workers in the private sector.

The people who came up with the minimum wage act in this country cheated those in the private sector by exempting employers with less than 25 staff from paying minimum wage.

Before it was 50 workers, but when Buhari signed a new minimum wage in 2019, it was amended and reduced to 25.

This man just subtly added the necessary fuel to the already burning fire 😂😅

He has always been like that,for its time for him to bring his POLL to Nigerians, especially during Crises and Elections.
Yet,he said he ran IBTc,now Stanbic Bank well. Meanwhile,you subtly support anything opposition,after making All your Money in Nigeria and since they did not win the elections,you still de support!
No be Unpatriotic be that!

It will benefit them if they work in a place with 25 staff or more.

Z115:
Pls is the corp members going to benefit from the new minimum wages?

yes of course. Corpers will earn the minimum wage. If the minimum wage is 100k, that's what corpers will be paid. Corpers are graded as level 8 which I think is the lowest level. I stand to be corrected

Keep on defending your oppressors, self-appointed evil government spokesman. Many people are suffering from Stockholm syndrome in this country.

Those in the private sector enjoy exemption. Only few of them are mandated by the law to pay it and that's why most of them are not too worried.They know the law.

Besides, some are even paying more than the minimum wage. For instance, those in the oil and gas who have already increased their workers salaries in keeping with the current economic climate.

You increase the price of your goods or services as things increases thereby making you to keep getting your profits as supposed to but the salaries of those civil servants have remained in one spot for years, bag of rice was less than 30k when minimum wage was made 30k yet the rice is now 85k still the minimum wage is 30k, that is why they have to fight hard over this

But less than 1%

More than 30%

But less than 1%

They’ve increased all government allocations including states and the National Assembly and ramped up taxes collected from the people

Why can’t you increase their salaries as generously too?
