ASUU meeting with FG ends in deadlock

Buhari, Governors’ Meeting Ends In Deadlock

Seems DEADLOCK is the new bae in town

The elephant in the room is the bloated civil service.

The thing is, the civil service in most states is full to the brim. Far too many staff. And an increase in salaries (note that they are not paying everyone N33000....N33000 is the minimum wage a worker on the lowest rung of the service can be paid.....)...would make it difficlt for most states to survive finaicially......EVEN if governors cut their fat salaries.

Nawao, that is even less than 100 dollars per month and all the useless criminal governor's in that meeting earn more than 200 million naira from security votes to contract padding, useless shithole politicians, just auctioned off the fúçkiñg country on eBay since all of you are bereft of pragmatic ideas to run a country

Nigeria is long gone, You really need to see the Evil going on in this shithole hell. I pray to God not to start my family life here.

Yet stupid lawmakers earn millions monthly doing rubbish and looting the nation.

30k isn't up to 100$. Fvck this country

Note that the $100 is the lowest amount of money that can be paid to a civil servant at the lowest rung of the service....it isn't the amount that most civil servants earn....most earn much higher (though still meagre) than that.

Yes, Mr Governor should cut his salaries....but it won't be enough.

if e like make e be DREADLOCKS,we are atikulating come 2019

See one of the miscreants who still believe in the liberation of Shithole. Una Mumu never do I swear. If u like go and bring "All the best world leaders" Shithole will still either get worst or remain the same. Awon Ode.

ozowarac:
Even to pay workers 30k is hard for the useless Governors we have in this part of the world. It's time start meeting this guys eyes for eyes, ipob and Shiites mode.

This is what i'm looking forward to, not all this nonsense athiefkulating or buharishits, They are all the same. We need to flush them out. Nigerians are the most useless hypocrites In the whole universe. Something like this will never happen anytime soon.

Amen oo

Logically thinking, I don't think the governors can afford to pay 30k minimum wage with the same old revenue allocation formula.

A new revenue formula should be drafted.

And they can take close to 600m as a security vote, you're part of our problem.

sureheaven:
Governors, Senators and Reps are the real problem facing the nation.

I will advice labor to keep to their stand. Anything less than 30k shld not be accepted and if it will be accepted, with serious conditions.
(1) the price of petrol shld reduce to 100 per liter
(2) the price of rice shld reduce to 9000
(3) free education for public school.
(4) students shld write free waec and neco
(5) workers shld have insurance card for free medical for them and their immediate relatives.
Governors shld be stripped of security votes

Senators, reps and state of assembly shld reduce their salaries and other allowances by 60%.

Meeting these conditions, labor shld accept the 24k

Good ideas

₦30,000 MINIMUM WAGE: BUHARI, GOVERNORS’ MEETING ENDS IN DEADLOCK
source: http://www.eyesoflagos.com/2018/11/30000-minimum-wage-buhari-governors.html

A meeting between President Muhammadu Buhari and the Nigerian Governor’s Forum to resolve the raging dispute over the proposed N30,000 National Minimum Wage ended in a deadlock on Monday in Abuja.

The meeting took place at the Presidential Villa.

The Chairman of the NGF, and Governor of Zamfara State, Mr Abdulazeez Yari, led a smaller team of governors to the meeting to speak for the Forum.

Eyes Of Lagos gathered that, Those at the meeting included Lagos State Governor, Akinwumi Ambode; Kebbi State Governor, Mr Atiku Bagudu; and the Enugu State Governor, Mr Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi.

The Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige, was also at the meeting.

Recall that the majority of the 36 state governors had maintained that they could only afford to pay N22,500 as the NMW.

They had also stated that the other options were for them to reduce their workforce or the Federal Government would have to review the revenue sharing formula to make more money available to the states.

The Ekiti State Governor, Mr Kayode Fayemi, is one of the key proponents of a revenue formula review.

Signs of a deadlock at the meeting was noticed when the governors emerged wearing long faces and refused to formally address State House correspondents.

One after another, Yari and his colleagues declined to talk.

Similarly, the President’s Media Office, which earlier promised to brief reporters on the outcome of the meeting, also kept mum after the meeting.

As of the time of filing this report, the media office had yet to respond to any inquiries.

However, findings indicated that pressure was put on the governors to move up to N24,000, a middle course the federal government was said to be disposed to as the NMW.

NLC is foolish.the strike should have not been suspended at all.Manipulation on this matter will continue till next year.

Apc is a part of gimmicks. They hadn't do anything for the right heart felt reason.

They probably drag this issue right to the death. When elections is close to approve the 30k to jump up their ratings. After they win they review it downwards.

More like debates on restructuring. That kind thing.

When You Are Unemployed NoBody Respects You Even Chickens can have Sex In Front Of You,common 30k they can't pay very useless set of leaders.

The most useless government I've ever seen!

lol no think am oooo

Nigerians are to blame. They are gullible, ignorant and foolish. The politicians keep tossing them left right center.

Buhari is only trying to play the caring president card by shifting the bulk to the governors while he is the complacent one with, what can they do attitude towards Nigerians. This election shouldn,t be Atiku/Buhari nor pdp/apc but Nigerians/Buhari and Nigerians/non-performers both in pdp and apc at all levels.

This NMW issue involves both APC and PDP governors agreeing against the interest of the electorate. But my friends on NL have already taken sides btw APC and PDP.
*spits*

I keep saying it when Nigerians and Africans are ready for good leadership they will get it. For now majority of us deserve these so call leaders

No ,just being realistic.

At the moment, we need oil to be at $140 per barrel to get a budget that we can balance well well.

And since we are not there,plus we are paying the debt from the loans we have had to take due to previous drops in the oil price....I doubt we can pay increased salaries....EVEN if we (And by the way,I think that governors and senators should have their salaries cut)...cut the salaries of the elite.

You want arich and prosperous economy.....then make it easier for investment to occur in your country...so that the heavy tax bill pays for salary increases. And get off oil.

Agreed,but not just the 'allocation formula'.
They should also review how states can be more financially independent.

He should just stop their security votes until they are ready to pay.... Simple!

With the way Nigeria is going. Nigerians can vote out a performing leader for one who will share #1000 during elections.

They Should Pls. Try Hard.
