Am glad you know there is a problem --- and the big part of it is that it is outrageous - it is utopian --- such minimum wage cant be payed!!!

Which problem again now?

The minimum wage has not been approved yet. What labour is proposing is for negotiation . Don't use that to judge them
This is not the first time minimum wage is being negotiated in this country.

you so much believe in ------ IT IS THE LAW ----- please show me where the law is enforced in the states where it is not payed

I am agreeing with you ---- IT IS THE LAW ---- please prove me wrong that your MINIMUM WAGE LAW WORKS!!!! ndi ara

Na wah for you o! Owhe edo.

If Nigerians don't obey the law will it work?

Well ,my point of arguing that minimum wage is law is to prove to you ,contrary to what you believe,that it's not in the hands of private businesses to determine what to pay as minimum wage. It's the Federal government that set minimum wage so that those category of workers are not exploited by their employers. Anything outside minimum wage you free to do what you like.

And the law says, if you have over 25 staff in your payroll , you must pay it to the lowest paid staff in your business. Whether you're making profit or not , you must pay . If you can't, then, it's either you do the work yourself or make sure your staff strength doesn't exceed 25 ,if not, you will sanctioned when caught and also asked to pay some fine.

But trust Nigerians in the private sector to lie about their staff strength so they don't pay.

It's because of the dishonestly in the private sector, where they lie so they avoid paying, together with the other exemptions most
of them enjoy, I say minimum wage is mostly for those in the public sector in Nigeria. It's not for everyone. If people know this here nobody will be singing hyperinflation based on what they read from an economic textbook which doesn't apply to the abnormal situation in Nigeria.

If you want everyone to benefit from minimum wage or you don't like to be forced to pay it when you're not making enough profit in your business then agitated for more inclusion and also tell them what you want instead of calling labour unrealistic. Once a new minimum wage is signed into law by Tinubu there's nothing you can do again to change it until 5 years time.
