Presidential spokesman, Femi Adesina has said the N30,000 minimum wage increment from N18,000 is not achievable. Femi Adesina, who was on Channels TV on Thursday, said while some state governors were grappling with the current minimum wage, it would be impossible for them to pay N30,000.

Even when Adesina was asked, if public office holders reducing their pay, would make the new minimum wage being demanded by Labour achievable, he said he doubted it.

“So if they can’t pay N18,000 and labour is asking for N30,000 and they refuse to come lower, there may be a stalemate which will not be good for the country.

“I think in the spirit of negotiation, labour should not insist on N30,000.”

“Even if they( public servants specially members of the All Progressives Congress) decide not to collect anything, it still doesn’t take care of N30,000 minimum wage; it doesn’t.

“Maybe if the members of the national assembly concede part of their salaries and allowances, it can make a dent on minimum wage. But other office holders don't earn anything outrageous.”

The problem with Nigeria's government is that they possess similar characteristics with a normal "oga" that offers a "sales boy/girl" job. These ogas would pay you 10k per month when the economy is stable.. Still pay you 10k when the economy is great and profits are soaring higher than ever.. Then start telling you "chere ka'm bia" when things start moving south.
This propaganda of an administration clearly told us that the economy is improving.. Oya, increase the salary too na.. Coke was N50 when workers started earning 18k.. Coke is now N100 per bottle and their salary is still the same o..
I spit on this administration.
