How can you just jump to 200k all of a sudden?? When fuel was 200/220 how much was Minimum wage?? Now that fuel have increase to 450/500, now do the calculation, how much do you think Minimum wage should be??
He's just an idiot bro
They don't think about private businesses. What is the population of Nigeria working for the government?
Imagine if every company has to pay minimum wage of 200k lol
The retard talking would probably be laid off and the price of goods would still increase

You're no different from the rest of the Nigerians you criticise, in that you want to have your cake and eat it too. Where exactly do you expect the money to "repair the refineries" to come from, let alone to also "build more modern and efficient ones", when debt servicing alone is already consuming all of the FG revenues before fuel subsidies even come into the picture?
keep shut oga. Money is everywhere.

Why comparing us to other countries, and what exactly are civil servants doing in Nigeria?

Civil servants are using the 5 days to fvck dem wives and husbands. They use it to gossip too and discuss politics.

I am not comparing your Godforksaken country and state to developed world. I am just making inference. Olodo ni generation e.

Obaseki, the dullard agbainaki should have consulted widely before doing this.
Life is not that expensive in Edo state. I loved there for 2 years and I know the terrain a little.

Edo peple have families abroad who can help their families cushion the effects of subsidy removal, by sending a little above what they are sending.

I repeat: he should have not reduced the workdays to 3. You will see how her IGR will go down.

Some readers misinterpreted Mr. GOVERNOR'S address. He said that he would increase minimum wage from 30k to 40k and not additional 40k.
That means a worker earning 30k at present will now be earning 40k minus tax.

Edo has a population of about 5m, civil servants are not more than 10,000. So u increase d salary of 10,000 people, good, ask them not to come to work for two days to save fuel expense, how do u give help to the overwhelming majority who are not civil servants but are self employed or work for d private sector? What stops u from buying double decker buses and positioning them all over d state to carry people at very low prices? How do u do home learning when poor people have no access to internet data? Too much to say about how this is just not d way to go

60k? Are you kidding me? You guys should demand for N200k minimum wage! But no! Poverty mentality, cognitive dissonance, and corruption will never let you demand it. While the fools you vote into power keep stashing your money abroad.

Truth is that if the pay isn't good simply go and start your own business. Government work is not by force.

All these reduced work days. Do these ones understand they not governors of civil servants alone, but governors of business people and the unemployed as well.....
no wonder people would always desperately look for government jobs, even pay to get one because they come first when challenging times comes.

God bless you,
I was telling someone yesterday that the highest government could do is to increase the pay to N50,000 and possibly reduce the working days to 4days a week.
Even at that, some states and private sector will lay off workers because they might not be able to pay their workforce.

It's viable, my uncle who was a former commissioner made me understand that Nigeria can afford to pay 200k now that corruption is still thriving, and that if the system is sound, that Nigeria can pay as much as 300k comfortably.

Only the people that have came close to the corridors of power knows how wealthy this country is.

Nigeria makes over 60 million dollars on daily bases from oil, the number of barrels withstanding.
I don't want to include internal generated revenue.

But the problem is that, state govt over inflate the number of civil servants.
A situation whereby the actual number of CS in a state is 700k, state Govt would assume its 4 million, so that they can loot the others.

Now imagine if the money that is fraudulently used to pay 4 million people, are used to pay only 700k, that's about 6 times the current minimum wage, which is 180k.

Bro corruption is killing Nigeria, don't be deceived.

As usual, poor nigerians will rush to his praise considering the fact, this is poverty level pay. My God this is not even up to $100 a month! Jesus! A country with all this Oil abundance. cry
it's painful to even imagine tbh. Nigerians are suffering and it seems we all are adjusting and getting used to it.


Sad!

Realistic about what? That your leaders and politicians are idiotic, stupid and can't string policies together to make life better for you all? That's why you all keep living in bondage.

Do you even know the meaning of minimum wage…?
First get a grasp of yourself, not every low level state worker deserves 200k salary hence there is a cap on the least amount of salary which is now 40k.

Secondly, a state can only pay as much as they generate. Until the federal govt gives more powers to state to generate more revenue, unless you’re ready to bleed more in paying state taxes which may end up being a bad idea.


Have you taken your time to compare the revenue and expenses of the state? You’re online screaming like a miscreant as if it is by paying the least of workers 200k.
