Window dressing. I won't give praise until I hear of it being implemented.

He set implementation to May 1st.

That means he will kick off payment himself. When Oshiomole increased his own during his tenure, he set implementation to after his left office .
Oshiomole was even owing arrears when he increased it....

So at least for now Obaseki is better than him in this regard....

Under what strength are they standing on to increase minimum wage please.

I wouldn't call this the minimum wage, it is a technical increase to the minimum wage of 30K.

The Tripatite committee is still yet to recommend a new minimum wage so all these ones are just to mitigate the hardship being faced by Edo State workers, after all, Mr President had already appealed to State Governments to pay the 30K additional wage award to its workers. That would automatically make Edo and Lagos States pay 70K as thier minimum wage.

Until and unless the tripartite committee recommends and the FG, States and private sector agree on a specific Amount (which I strongly believe will be a little above 100K), I'm sorry, this is just a temporary addition to Salaries.


At least in the absence of a formal increase as demanded by Labour, every plus is welcome now.

Abi workers should be denied access to any relief until Labour/FG formally conclude?

Pre election gimmicks. There is no standard roads in Benin city or any other town that Obaseki has constructed in his 8 years of media propaganda administration. All the good and nice looking roads in Benin city were done by a non-bini man Oshiomhole, that's why many Binis see Obaseki as a disgrace to Bini kingdom.

Which road do you want him to build in Benin since Oshiom-ole built the roads in Benin?

The new government can pay more if he continue to use Obaseki template.
No waste or corruption in taxe collection, prudent management of state resources,
No sharing of state money, Digital civil service = less room for corruption.
Lol..you think there was no corruption in his tenure?

What happened to all the standard ones Oshiomole built ?

Abi he is the first governor in Edo? Sick and tired of the same lies day and night these APC miscreants put online ..

just come online and be typing nonsense , haba

When he was paying 40k , was it because of election too ?

How many governors can even pay salaries in Nigeria ?

Obaseki has never defaulted in salaries, never. 28th of every month workers smiles to their alert…

Also, every December double salary is sure on the 22nd cheesy



No be fight brother, mention the road he built and rest

It is when they are about to leave the office that they come with 'largesse' like this. A new government will take over and start scream "No capacity" and "empty treasury".

Same old pre-election trick, every time.

A state where we have less than 550 teachers in senior secondary school.
The state couldn't allow even one teacher to participate in the forth coming Waec supervision instead they suggested that, WAEC should use pensioners because there are no teachers in secondary schools. Obaseki is a big failure.

Tinubu should be ashamed of himself. So they have to beg the old toad to do his job?

Do you want me to praise Tinubu or thank Okpebholo for going to beg his oga to do his job.

APC supporters don't know anything about governance.

I saw some projects someone listed and done by this man called Okpebholo and no one countered the poster that he didn't do it. If such a man can be given a chance to be governor, Edo state will wear a new look with potential infrastructural development.

I don't give a damn about the political party he belongs to, I believe in competence

I beg to differ from your opinion, if you read the post very well, the last paragraph explained that; it is the second time Gov. Obaseki is increasing minimum wage in the state. The first was in 2021 from #30,000 to #40,000 which was #10,000.00 higher than the national minimum wage.
Is the above paragraph also part of your acclaimed "political gimmicks" ? I was expecting you to ask if salary payment in the state has been regular and not to run him down because of your obvious political sentiment that is actually not needed at this point.

I would have appreciated it if he did it about a year ago. He is deliberately creating problems for the in coming administration. Why is he implementing this when he is leaving?
