This is loud.....

But the taxes and high cost of living alongside inflation will render the minimum wage useless......

After all, how many percentage of Lagosians are civil servants...

But we appreciate his efforts and so far, Lagos state remains the center of excellence....

Minimum wage supposed to be over 200k based on current inflation

Under GEJ, minimum wage is 18k but it will buy 2 bags of rice at 7k - 7,500 that you will still have some balance left

Today, a bag of rice goes for 100k which means minimum wage cannot even buy 1 bag of rice

The real value of money is the purchasing power of money

The young man is trying to escape from the name Pain. He better increase minimum wage to 100k or else his name is SanwoPain.

All members of All Pain Congress are now answering Pain unless the person can provide a good reason why he or she doesn’t deserve the name.

Nigeria have to accept the new norm. The new norm is that price won’t decrease, government just needs to ensure the people wages increase so they can at least have a better living.

If the wage is 30k minimum before and he get that to 85k, that’s going to 3 fold, it’s something to appreciate.

Now use this same way to advise Alex Otti who is still paying 18k, or Abia civil servant are not human beings too?

It's not the state government that float the naira and increased pump price putting the Nigeria economy into shambles

Let the federal government increase minimum wage to 200k and the state shall follows
