So someone who earns N100,000 a month based on the N18,000 minimum wage, how much will the person earn based on the N30,000 minimum wage?

Firstly, 18k increased to 30k is about 66% increment, if the increment is to be spread across the board then N100k will be about N166k after the minimum wage is implemented. Unfortunately, everything depends on your employer. Minimum wage means the least amount anyone in your organization will be getting is N30 000. So your employer can choose to either leave you at N100k or add maybe like 10% increase to your current salary. They can even reduce your salary, as long as it does not go below N30 000.

Anybody earning that amount a month should be able to do that simple mathematics

N18k is unaffordable given the precarious debt profile of the FG and most state governments, never mind N30k.

For people who pontificate about the iniquities of our "low" minimum wage given the corruption/enrichment of the political class - the solution isn't to embark on the fiscally irresponsible act of adding to our already unsustainable recurrent expenditure. What we desperately need is more capital expenditure that will benefit all - bridges, rail, ports, e.t.c.

Public sector pay rises benefit a miniscule proportion of the population and much of it will "leak" out anyway via increased consumption of imported goods. It was such pay rises under Yar'Adua and GEJ - from N5k to N18k - that depleted the forex reserves and left Nigeria unable to exploit the oil boom.

Also, isn't funny how the minimum wage keeps increasing with no appreciable impact on the general populace - it was circa N800 in 1999? Perhaps, we ought to have learned that, like a dog chasing its tail, you won't reduce poverty in Nigeria by awarding public sector (a tiny segment of the populace) pay rises. Historical evidence is lost on Nigerians and the corruption narrative warps our judgement.

About =N=166,666 if the increase is across board.

Omo! With this increase, na to finally go marry another wife. More children for me loading... yes oo!

The council of the state including 36 governor's agreed on 28k as a minimum wage. This yeye senators trying to incite public against federal government. If federal government accept on minimum wage what about those states? The so called lawbreakers should deliberate on how they can reduce their salary. If that would help to pay minimum wage.

66% increment. That will be N100,000 + N66,000 = N166,000.

At all at all na hin bad.

Presents Report Tuesday, Senate to Pass the Bill same day

By Henry Umoru


ABUJA – THE Senate Adhoc Committee on a New National Minimum Wage Bill, 2019, has agreed with the House of Representatives, recommending N30,000 as the accepted minimum wage for the Nigerian workers as against N27,000 proposed by the Federal Government.

The Committee which is chaired by the Deputy Chief Whip of the Senate, Senator Francis Alimikhena, All Progressives Congress, APC, Edo North, met yesterday at Senate Room 431 New Building has concurred with the members of the House of Representatives that had earlier recommended a wage of N30,000 that was later adopted by the lower chamber.

A source told Vanguard yesterday that at the meeting of the Committee, the Chairman, Senator Alimikhena asked all the members to make contributions one after the other on the new minimum wage.

According to the source, all the Senators who spoke one after the other agreed, for a new minimum wage of N30,000, just as they were said to have taken the bill clause by clause whereby they also agreed with the issues raised in the bill.

Vanguard also gathered that the Senators agreed on very stiff punishment for civil servants who do not go to work as a fine of N75,000 to be paid by any erring Civil servant has been settled for by the members, just as they were said to have complained bitterly about local government workers who abscond from their duty posts, only to wait and come to the secretariat whenever the salaries were ready.

The Committee, Vanguard learnt would present its report to the Senate at Plenary next week Tuesday as the report would be ready this week and passed by the Upper chamber next week Tuesday.

It would be recalled that the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki on Monday this week, announced that following the absence of the Chairman, Senate Adhoc Committee on New National Minimum Wage Bill, Senator Olusola Adeyeye, APC, Osun Central, the Deputy Senate Majority Whip, Senator Francis Alimikhena, APC, Edo North to now head the panel in acting capacity.

It would be recalled that the Senate had on 24th January this year, set up an eight- member Adhoc Committee to look at the New Minimum Wage bill after scaling second reading, just as the Bill was referred to the constituted ad- hoc Committee.

The Ad- hoc Committee had the Senate Majority Whip, Senator Olusola Adeyeye, APC, Osun Central, with the Deputy Chief Whip, Senator Francis Alimikhena, APC, Edo North, representing the South South; Senator Abu Ibrahim, APC, Katsina South who is the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Labour; Senator Shehu Sani, PRP, Kaduna Central, representing the North West; Senator Sam Egwu, PDP, Ebonyi North, representing South East); Senator Suleiman Adokwe, PDP, Nasarawa South, North Central) ; Solomon Adeola, APC, Lagos West, representing South West and Senator Binta Masi Garba, APC, Adamawa North, representing North East.

The Committee was given two weeks to conclude its assignment and report back.

Meanwhile, the Chairman, Senate Committee on Local Content, Senator Solomon Adeola (APC, Lagos West), yesterday called for the review of Revenue Allocation Formula by the Revenue Mobilisation and Fiscal Commission as a way of effectively implementing the recommended N30,000 minimum way across all tiers of government.

Making his contribution during a meeting of the Senate Ad Hoc Committee on Minimum Wage chaired by Senator Francis AlimiKhena to consider the Minimum Wage Bill, Senator Adeola supported the recommended N30,000 contained in the National Minimum Wage Bill adding however that the law when passed must be implemented by all the three tiers of government.

In a statement signed by his Media Adviser, Kayode Odunaro, Senator Adeola said, ” I am in support of the recommended minimum wage as it will go a long way in cushioning the challenges faced by workers. However, there must be no excuse for non implementation by any tiers of government across the federation. It is in this wise that I call on the Revenue Mobilisation and Fiscal Commission to begin a process that will lead to the review of the Revenue Allocation Formula for all tiers of government to be able to pay the minimum wage when passed into law”.

The senator supported the sanctions contained in the bills for indolent workers stressing that while supporting the minimum wage for workers and improve welfare packages, the Civil Service at all levels must perform at its best as they are critical in the delivery of dividends of democracy to the people.

It would be recalled that the House of Representatives, had on 29th January, approved a national minimum wage of not less than N30,000 per month for Nigerian workers.

The passage followed the lawmakers’ unanimous adoption of a report of an ad hoc committee on National Minimum Wage Bill, 2019, which recommended N30,000 as against N27,000 proposed by the Federal Government.


According to the Chairman, ad hoc committee on National Minimum Wage Bill and Deputy Speaker of the House, Yusuf Lasun (APC, Osun), the bill aims to prescribe the national minimum wage and a legal framework for a seamless review.

Tagged “A Bill for an Act to repeal the National Minimum Wage Act 1981 and enact the National Minimum Wage Bill, 2019” the law makes it compulsory for employers in Nigeria to pay their workers no less than N30,000 per month.

The Lower Chamber approved the minimum wage bill following its adoption by the ad hoc committee on the report presented to the assembly by President Muhammadu Buhari.
