Demand increase from your employers too,have they not increased the price of their service and goods too?

Labour must not sell out at this time. This Political criminals should not transfer the responsibilities of their inefficiency to the Nigerian people.

1. 50% subsidy removal followed by going after subsidy thieves and closing out boarders to stop outgoing refined products to neighbouring countries. Final subsidy removal after dangote and other refineries come on stream and the power sector is fixed.

2. No need floating the exchange rate. Remove the FX restrictions, slightly devalue the naira and bridge the gap between official and parallel rates

3. No need taking away the funding for tertiary education. FG can get involved directly in improving standard of education without transferring the burden to the masses.

Any government that has the masses at heart has options to explore

Mumu labour.

Confuse set of people

Toothless 🐕

Mumu nlc🖕

Very useless set of NLC

Now let me ask one questions from this LABOUR Union,Can they themselve in there establishment pay the MINIMUM wage they are clamoring for,If they can answer this question with a open heart and all honesty then they should come back to demand this from the government .
Those that find it hard to pay there house help or shop help 20k are here demanding 150k from the government as MINIMUM wage

we ain't ready for this conversation yet

Is not possible in Nigeria, not even in this generation of politians.

NLC should forget about strike, we're already adapting. But FG should pay 200k minimum wage. If FG can pay subsidy cabals 40 billion naira daily for fuel, they can easily pay 200k minimum wage.

I think 150k minimum wage is more feasible.

Keep dreaming. There will be no salary increment for either public or private workers. You want inflation to spike, abi.

The strike has failed already.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR should please direct the Accountant General Office to pay Federal Civil Servants under IPPIS May Salaries before 22nd of June,2023.

May Allah bless you sir.

BossLA:

They should increase minimum wage
How do u expect someone earning 40k to survive?
Nawa for una

If subsidy must go, then increase minimum wage

Yeah, I support this.

This Subsidy removal is the right step, but the fallout has not been properly managed!

There is no easy way about turning Nigeria around, but you can't just ask suffering people to suffer beyond their already pitiable states!

The only people cushioned against subsidy removal are the very wealthy, who happen to be less than a tenth of this Nation's population!

This is unacceptable!!!

The only solution is to substitute the PMS with CNG,

Asking for minimum wage is a good fight while telling government to restore subsidy payment is a bad fight.

At the end price of petrol will land at N450 per litre while minimum wage will be increase to btw 45 - 50k

Story story!

NLC is toothless! They can't bite.
They should go and sleep.
They are already in federal Government's pocket.

Sijo01:
The earlier labour stands its ground and do everything possible to enable the relevant authorities reduce the cost of PMS the better for all Nigerians

You never hear say them day smuggle am go neighboring countries even as we speak?

Our PMS is cheaper that’s why. Making it cheaper than this will simply accomplish the opposite.
Smugglers will increase.

Lol... Demand?!! In a private sector! Hehehehe!

You people just make comments as if Nigeria functions exactly like UK or U.S! It's just amusing!

So,if you are the government what will you do?

Demand increase in the private sector? It's like you don't live in Nigeria

NLC should be careful with Gbaja, ASUU can tell NLC, about how the deceived them to return to work, but later informed them that he did not promise them anything. So they should not fall to his mischievous.

The Ajaero should know that all eyes are on him.
Raising minimum wage should be total for fg,state and Lg workers and not just a fed govt law applicable only to fed workers and leaving states and lgas to source for money for the new pay on their own which is unrealistic.
Payment augmentation to states should come from fed govt and shldnt be left for states who can't even pay 30k minimum wage in many states .
If fg govt can't meet paying all Nigerian workers the new minimum wage, then it should bring back oil subsidy.

Toothless entity because a yeriba man is at the helm. When you people were carrying placards and were occupying the whole Nigeria with the same toothless entity on the same issue, they were not toothless entity then.
Double standard people. Very self centered people

Well we should all calm down and don’t bring up all this yoruba or igbo and Hausa we know they have nothing to do let’s watch them closely and then pray make this stupid NLC do the needful even if we watch them closely what are we gonna do about it make we no use that one they fight each other oo we are all one Nigeria right from time sef dem no get pity for we the citizens bc we know no the number wey we de for this country let God intervene

Thievery Corporation call labour union

hafeeanubasy:


So,if you are the government what will you do?

1. Put forth a bill protecting workers rights in both private and public organization! This will compel Private practices to replicate everything FG is doing for their workers.

2. Sequel to the above, there should be reduced working days for all workers especially those earning less. Most can be converted to remote or hybrid.

3. Extend resumption of schools this coming academic session.

4. Release mass buses for workers in public and private. You get in with an ID.

Of course, these ought to have been put in place before removing the subsidy!

Do us a favour sir. Tell us the total number of workers we have in Nigeria (let's limit it to Federal Government workers) then multiply the figure by 200k let's check something.

By the way, back to NLC's threat of going on strike, I hope the so called NLC is aware Nigerians no longer take them seriously any more

Wetin happen, the money don finish?

Imagine such amount daily is enough to pay every soul 50k salary

You forgot to add that a yeriba man left about $60 billion in the reserve despite clearing debt and the economy was very buoyant as at the time of Jonathan. The same yeriba man met $5.5 billion in the reserve with a large unserviceable debt as at May 29, 1999. After two American Presidents visited Nigeria under a Yeriba man, in 2008, oil jumped to $108/barrel. As at May 29, 2015, Jonathan saved no Kobo, not even 1 kobo, spent everything they made, spent estimated $25 billion from the money Obasanjo (Yeriba) left and borrowed heavily and even borrowed to pay salary despite selling oil up to $135 per barrel while our output was 2.2millions barrel per day. Their Minister of Finance is recognized in the book - Thieves of State: Why Corruption Threatens Global Security a Book by Sarah Chayes. If the economy was as bad as it is now, nobody would have disturbed them from subsidy removal.

Though, I supported Jonathan's subsidy removal as at that time and fought on his side being from minority tribe I would have regretted my action as the IBOs would have still spent and looted everything.

Tinubu met a nation that is almost dead with nothing left. Nigeria shall rise again. If the labour supports Nigeria to be borrowing money to finance subsidy and pay salary they should proceed on strike immediately.

Labour, the toothless bulldog, won't do shit. Dey no fit mess make e smell...
