If Fed Govt claims that they don't have enough money to pay for minimum wage, then is now time for Senators,Rep Members, & Ministers' money to be cut atleast into three parts to enable this payment of minimum wage a reality. 1 Like |

Reference: Are you for real or just kidding If you don't understand what govt body checks the executive then I suggest you learn before making comments. Na NLC dey prepare budget? Abi na NLC be nass wey dey scrutinise budget. When did NLC become budget office or DMO of ministry of finance to be balancing govt revenue and expenditure. Bros, go siddon one place. The minister of labour said personnel cost increased by almost 100% in three years. You didn't call out nass or ministry of finance, you're calling NLC out!! You sound paid or ignorant. I'm still trying to place you 1 Like |

Personally, I stand with the FG in this issue. Consequential adjustment as proposed by the FG is to increase the wages by about 10 - 40% depending on the grades. This is what the FG can afford economically speaking. BUT labour is asking for 67% increase across board. Let us be sincere, it wont work. Why are they not shouting on the private companies to do same. Private companies simply increased the minimum wage without any salary raise or adjustment. |

Reference:Now I understand your problem. You believe the civil servants are asking for what they don't merit. The truth though is that Nigerian civil servants are one of the most poorly paid in the world. The 30k is not for civil servants alone but for all workers in Nigeria. Fortunately for them, the NLC can fight for them. Who fights for employees in the private sector?? Your assertion that civil servants should go against political heads cannot work in this country. Who's ready to sacrifice his job in the name of being a watchdog. If you can't beat them, join them it is. For every kobo stolen by civil servants, politicians have looted five times more. The elephant in the room is corrupt politicians. Let me give you another one. That balloon in personnel cost was brought about by budget inflation in 2016 in the name of spending to revive the economy. The budget was tripled then with the increase reflecting more in personnel than capital projects and people hailed. When the padding issue came to the fore, this govt shifted blame to civil servants, suspended and redeployed a few of them as face saving mechanism and end of story. Nobody asked how civil servants could have ballooned budgets without the political heads' knowledge 1 Like |

JonDon12:not at the same % this mistake was what derailed Gej government, it has never been done before then, Nigerian budget cannot accommodate such increase, if it happens we are always back to square one it's a vicious circle. |

BuhariAdvocate:Perhaps you don't understand the dynamics of minimum wage. So if your salary was 30k on grade level 2, now someone on grade level 1 should earn same 30k salary with you abi? The govt or rather politicians know what they are doing, this govt has only one goal: impoverish the people until they become helpless and accept anything thrown at them. They increased fuel pump price from 97 to 145 NGA, now they've increased VAT by 50% which means you will pay more for electricity that one hardly sees, toll gates are coming back on death traps called roads etc...BTW this is not the first time of having a new minimum wage....why is it different now? 3 Likes |

Reference: If Buhari had the common sense to trim the civil service during his first term, the pain of this salary increase would have been moderated. I doubt if they would even have gotten so large an increase realising they have a no nonsense person up there. OBJ for instance was not someone to play to the gallery and was no friend of the NLC. He probably just saw them as paralytic which most unions really are. Buhari on the other hand is a left leaning populist with no understanding of economics whatsoever. He is an economic disaster anyway you look at it. He refused to deregulate the price of fuel when the opportunity presented itself. Rather than cut down waste, he splurged funds on the rickety refineries and the whitest elephant of all, Ajaokuta Steel Mill. His refusal to merge the exchange rate shortchanges the government of hundreds of billions of Naira yearly. 1 Like 1 Share |
