Ladyhippolyta88: Maybe it's true government can't afford the minimum wage, but like they say, if it's not important to them there will always be an excuse for it, but if it's important to them they will find all means necessary to make it happen. Accepting to pay the new minimum wage will mean government will have to work harder, here lies the problem, no one came to work hard, they came to feed fat. 1 Like |

Chibuokemlevi3: it's blocked because the indigenes sold land that water used to pass through naturally diverting the water to a federal road which has led to the destruction of that road. Port Harcourt people that always refuse to re bag their waste, the whole place is dirty and an eyesore. |

[quote author=12Ebisco post=72690637] The workers unions accuse the government of going back on a N30,000 decision reached at a tripartite meeting between labour, government, and private employers. However, the federal government says no agreement was reached at the tripartite meeting and insists on a N24,000 minimum wage, while the state governors say they would only be able to pay N22,500. Cc Richiepolymer, Ndachee I though you guys said the federal government was ready to pay N30,000 . |

luizkyworld:Decent analysis, but you missed out balancing these figures out with the price of oil at these two period and how difficult it has been for a lot of State Governments to pay the current minimum wage, with the Federal Governmental even needing to bail some states out for this reason. That being said, if the masses are going to suffer, let's all suffer. The allowance of our Federal Legislators at least needs serious review; the current way things are is unfair. |

If they cut down government officials' spending and salaries by 50%, workers will not demand for 30,000 minimum wage. The $500,000 bubu gave Guinea Busau will go a long way in our present situation as a nation! 2 Likes |

just watch what will happen next year, govt will increase salaries of legislators, just that this time it will be secret, if these thieves have the decency to slash their pay by 50% and invest their loot in the local economy and live modestly nobody will be clamouring for wage increase. if our so called pastors and religious leaders reprimand them for their bad ways on Sundays ,this issue would be averted. but alas, everyone has chosen to let them be, so we shouldn't complain. |

Everybody is pointing fingers at the FG.......... Our thinking as a nation and populace still baffles me...... This same NLC will come out to castigate the FG but cannot do same to states via their respective chapters. What has NLC done to governors of those states who have not even paid the #18k minimum wage and even keeping up to the payments of workers salaries? Instead of them to start the fight from the states, they prefer to move to the center and I wonder to whose benefits on the long run? What's the population of FG civil servants compared to that of the entire states of the federation and if one is to add local government councils? All these back ward ways of thinking will not take us in the right direction. |

Omololu001: Oga. Do your basic math and wax it with facts not blind sentiments so you can be a viable citizen. There are 1.5 million federal civil servants and there are 450 federal representatives. At 18,000 minimum wage the monthly wage bill if all civil servants earned this is about 27 billion. If this was paid to the reps that will amount to 60 million per rep as basic salary monthly which is completely out the ball park. Mind you I am refering to minimum wage and basic pay. When you add all the benefits civil servants earn and the mean wage of the entire civil service which may be around 30,000 to 40,000 then factor it by 66 percent being asked for the annual basic wage bill of the federal civil service may rise to nearly 1 trillion naira. Is that not a worrying level of allocation. What is the benefit in all these to yhe average Nigeria please. I mean the 95 percentile. |
