Above 60k is 60001
If I were the government that's what I will do and if ajaero try another strike he will end up in prison because the agreement is above 60k and 60001 is above 60k

In a press briefing addressing the potential impact of Silicon Valley Bank’s failure on Nigerian businesses, Emefiele asserted that bank depositors are the ultimate owners of banks since they have more to lose than shareholders. He emphasized, “I would rather dispose of shareholders than make depositors lose money,” a policy he maintained throughout his tenure.

While I would have preferred they remain on strike while they continue negotiations, even if they call it off, it's a win.

The government has committed to going above 60k which they weren't willing to do before. They also have one week to come up with a reasonable offer or strike returns.

sod09:
More than 60k 🤣🤣🤣
E no fit better for this ajaero why did you waste our time for this nonsense
Blueraydick you see why shutting down the power grid was a stupid move
The agreement wasn't even specified enough yet this slowpoke signed it
His balls should be cut off because he doesn't deserve it I knew he would fold
Why start something you can't finish

Cos both countries are quite different. A lot of those people that lost their jobs in the UK still have access to a level of free quality healthcare and welfare benefits that is unattainable to the average Nigerian.

You now add the emotional torture of seeing the politicians that put you in this nasty position all driving around in their customized luxury cars and building mansions with their ill-gotten wealth.

The day Nigerians check the country's expiry date and realize the country expired a long time ago, that is the day the leaders will feel the pain.

I visited someone who gave birth within the week and she was lamenting that unlike before when people give gifts, most people were giving her money.

People have calculated that 2 or 3k will not buy anything reasonable so they just give her the money

“The notice of strike was too short. It was given from the negotiation table and it was 48 hours or less. The approach of the current crop of NLC leaders is aggressive, arrogant, fascist and partisan. The body language is unmistakable. It is directed at bringing the government down. This NLC has no respect for the rule of law, not even an iota of decorum for democratic practices.

“If we cannot speak for the government, what about Nigerian Muslims whose lives your strike could turn into a sheer nightmare? Is this a deliberate attempt to make life uncomfortable for Muslims? Will NLC declare a strike one week before Christmas? Or is this about bringing down our Muslim-Muslim ticket? Is this part of the ‘religious war’ of ‘Yes Daddy’?

“This strike is ill-timed. It is a recipe for a topsy-turvy Salah. We advise NLC to postpone it till after the Salah. If NLC rejects our advice and goes ahead with its satanic strike, we will ask all Muslim workers who know that they will meet Allah yaom al-Qiyaamah (The Last Day) not to cooperate with NLC. They should reject the strike because it is an assault on the religion of Islam.

You are conflating a political issue with an economic one.

Election costs millions of dollars in expenditure and alliances. Politicians must recoup. That's the unfortunate nature of the beast that there's no point arguing.

The issue here is whether trebling or quintipling minimum wage is a feasible solution to a cost of living crisis driven by inflation. There's on upper limit on the cost of goods and services, so when retailers hear that cleaners are now earing 100k, prices will go up and only find equilibrium when the purchasing power of 100k is on par with the old 30k salary...and then what happens next? Another strike?

I don't envy anybody involved because I don't think there's a solution that works for everybody on the horizon.. Nigeria is just too fückef at the current time. That's why I've been a japa proponent for a long time.

Itsrm:
100k is no longer what you think it is. If you come back to Naija today, you will blow that 100k faster than you'll finish one cigarette

100-150k minimum wage for a lastma street sweeper or LGA cleaner sounds insane sha.

APPEAL TO ORGANISED LABOUR, BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF NIGERIA

This is a heartfelt and deeply considered appeal to the Labour Unions to continue along the path of negotiations with the Federal and State Governments, under the auspices of the Tripartite Committee that has been established to fashion out a new, realistic minimum wage for the Nigerian people.

As Government, we are desirous of a peaceful outcome, and we will do everything to make this happen. Yesterday, the leadership of the National Assembly met with the Unions. Today, we have offered another invitation to the Unions, to meet with us and continue our discussions.

We will continue to engage, and continue to make ourselves very available in the context of these negotiations on behalf of the Nigerian people

Let me make it clear that we are not opponents on this negotiating table. We are united by the fact that we want the best for the Federal Republic of Nigeria and for all 200 million citizens of the country.

We have a responsibility to strike a measured and realistic balance, in this effort to arrive at a new minimum wage for Nigerians.

Let us remind ourselves of the fundamental facts:

The minimum wage is not only for public sector workers. It will be binding on the private sector as well. This reality must be factored into the negotiations.

As I have explained earlier, Labour’s current proposal of N494,000 is an increase of 1,547 percent on the existing wage, and translates into an annual wage bill of 9.5 Trillion Naira for the Federal Government of Nigeria alone.

This is apart from its cost implications for subnational governments and private sector employees. Such a wage bill would cripple the Nigerian economy, by leading to massive job losses especially in the private sector.

The National Consumer Credit Scheme and the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) are additional significant demonstrations of a determination to bring relief to the people of Nigeria.

We want the Labour Unions to understand that the relief that Nigerians are expecting, and that they fully deserve, will not come only in the form of increased wages. It will also come as efforts to reduce the cost of living, and to ensure that more money stays in the pockets of Nigerians.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) is firmly committed to doing what is right, reasonable and sustainable regarding these minimum wage negotiations. We call on the Labour Unions to reciprocate this gesture in the interest of the nation.

I thank you for listening.

Are you just knowing Bayo Onanuga?

I'm surprised you are surprised by his statement. What he is doing is what he is paid to do.

larride:
They are government spokesperson now, what do you expect them to say really?

They'll try to deflect from the issue on ground, it's what they are paid for.

liveLongNprospa:
I actually dey disappointed in Obi sha.

This particular situation, I expected baba to be lending his voice to add pressure for demands to be met.

liveLongNprospa:
Lmaooo these are the people you want to be reasonable with.
People that have not said a word about the power supply of hospitals since.
Or the overworked medical workforce.

A part of me hopes this doesn't stop

The most useless body in the country

“It’s saddening that Labour could go to this extreme. But it is not surprising to the perceptive minds. Labour is harming the Nigerian people they claim to be fighting for. Today, many sick Nigerians cannot access medical care at government hospitals.

“Not even those with critical medical conditions. It appears labour is playing politics by other means. Many of the affiliates of the two central unions, NLC and TUC are members and supporters of the Labour Party.

“They logically bear ill will and grudges against the Tinubu administration. Otherwise, the issue they claim to be fighting for cannot be resolved by blackmail or sabotage, they cannot even be resolved by the Federal Government unilaterally, the Labour leaders will still have to return to the negotiating table.”

Itsrm:
That alternative is not an option.

We can't even complain. The man don try

larride:
The situation in the country is beyond critical. Na why I dey tell you and Blueray for morning say wetin that man dey yarn for that interview ma medium/long term solution.

Minimum wage need to increase immediately to at least help workers to survive.

When doctors strike, I hope you know it doesn't affect all other healthcare workers (if I'm wrong unlimited22 and afrodoc2 should correct me please).

Nurses, lab technicians and the likes still go to work even when doctors are on strike only that you wont be able to meet with doctors.

But when you shutdown hospital, all health workers wont be on ground. There's a huge difference between both of the situation o.

[color=royalblue]Larride has a point, but his alternatives na wash

Block National Assembly? People wey no wan work sef.

But he is right about losing the people, if the strike bites harder[/color]
