PrinceofSarcasm:
The government is not cutting back on excess spending. I know you're not unaware of current events, so surely you know that Tinubu just approved N90 billion for the Hajj pilgrimage! This pilgrimage is primarily attended by top politicians, their families, and friends.

Secondly, he approved half a trillion naira (N500 billion) for a committee to deliberate on the minimum wage issue. Does this sound like cutting back to you?

Do I need to show you the extravagant wages of the House of Representatives, the Senate, and their numerous executive aides and PAs?

The president and VP combined have on payroll 65 advisers and special advisers!! Whats absurdity is that? I have long given up on Tinubu doing anytjhing positive and his acts show he is extremely insincere and corrupt

This government is just insincere in its claims of austerity and cost-cutting measures.

thank you for this. We the masses are our own problem. When it is the government, no problem. But when it is the masses, haaaaa, inflation will reach the sky. God should help me let me leave this country

tellsblinks:
Haba it's not Tinubu Fault nah... He constituted a committee and your GOVERNOR is part of it.

It's your Governors that is pricing this rubbish!!

Didn't you read up. The source said the government are serious. That governors were not in the meeting. Only two governors had representatives there. Niger and one other state. Pls always read up

tellsblinks:
At this Point It's only the NLC that's concerned About Nigerians Welfare

A part of me actually thought they would accept bribe and succumb to any money FG proposes.

But they are really with us on this.

Thank you NLC ❤

you know what's up

The way Nigeria is currently structured, the best tinubu could do is give Nigeria workers a substable minimum wage. The government have refuse to cut there lavish life style. You bought latest SUV for senator and house of representatives. Increase the salary of judges by over a 100 percent, so President tinubu should also give a living minimum wage

President tinubu is desperately rushing to conclude the students loan and minimum wage as achievement since he took over in may 29 last year. The students loan has not been talked about since April, when he signed it into law. All of a sudden, we hear that 1.2 million students have been picked. And they would start giving out loan by 24 May 2024, five days to one year in office. The same thing with the minimum wage. The negotiation between the committee was last held March. For over two months, no meeting was held. But suddenly, we almost had two meetings in a week. And there is another meeting today. Just because we are moving closer to May 29.
All this rushing and desperation wouldn't be necessary, if this govt is reasonable and put the masses at heart. Those high coaster road construction should have been done alongside project that will directly benefits the masses.

Ok, but what happens if economy bounces back when fuel comes to < 300 in the next 2years as projected and prices of items begin to fall in. Will NLC agree downward review? Moreso Thier members are few compared to the entire Nigerians with no salaries.

are you living in dream land. So for your full mind, you believe say the price of fuel will go back to 300 for this Nigeria. Keep on dreaming

Christistruth00:
NLC is now playing Politics instead of fighting for Workers

how are they playing politics

helinues:
Ac no be for poor man

sorry but you talk anyhow. Sometimes, I wonder you behave as a person

The government is desperate. Because for over two months the committee didn't meet, all of a sudden they had a meeting on Wednesday and call for another on Thursday. Maybe president tinubu want to announce the minimum wage on it before May 29

I have been hearing if they increase minimum wage, it will increase inflation. Will it really increase inflation. As at march, the inflation rate in Nigeria is over 30 percent. This rate is high already. So, how will the increase of minimum wage increase inflation. Maybe there is something am not seeing. So let discuss. Will Increase in minimum wage increase inflation

Julius1351:
This country na comedy sha 😹. Labour proposed 615K, Federal Government bargained 48K 😂....... Who dah f#ck bargains like that.

The thing tire me. Look at the gap. One is too high, while the other is too wicked

Cmanforall:
Who are those to earn minimum wage

For now it will benefit federal government workers

Those at the bottom of civil service earn the minimum wage. Let Nigerian ls not confuse it with graduates who are civil servants.
I think a university graduate will start from Level 8. This means he's 7 steps above the minimum wage
Is that not so?
So a graduate will not earn 48k per month in the federal civil service

what are talking

helinues:
Make una stop misusing English words.

Government are only informing the masses about their resolution at the 2 days FEC meeting which is unusual.

Not everything you guys should be frowning at

informing, that is why you guys will make us hear word again.
And come to think of it, what is the benefit of the resolution to the masses. All they did was to approve roads. In that resolution, no one single project that the ordinary man on the street would benefit from. You are building roads and fuel is 1000. Why can't pass resolution to bring the price of fuel down. That the masses would ok with.
It all nonsense

These people are celebrating the outcome of this meeting as if they have done something worthwhile

Am just curious, has president tinubu been seen in any public event since he back from Saudi Arabia. It is over three days now, and we haven't seen the number one citizen.
Hope all is well

Pls is tuchel really coming. Because ten hang have me tired of man u

That is if Nigeria is progressing. A country is retrograding and we are being rule by evil people and you want us to keep quiet. Just look at how the government is handling the issue of minimum wage, you will know that this people at the helm of affairs are not only wicked, they are devilish

Level 12 in earned 160,000 . It was this the wages award that made it increased to 190000

I used to attend canaanland but recently we went alot in the country. Last year, due to the removal of fuel subsidy and the floating of naira, we suffer alot, but what did my church did for his members in return, nothing. Aleast, just little palliative to the people that has been paying tithe and offering. When the Lord Jesus Christ was here on earth and he was preaching in the wilderness, the bible says he had compassion on the multitudes because they have not eaten for days. But what are our churches giving back to their members that pay there tithe and offering with there hard earned money, nothing. No compassion. No pity. So because of this sole reason, I stop attending canaanland. Since then I have been trying to get another church to attend, but most don't preach the word to the level that I am. So I just sit at home and read my Bible and pray every Sundays

WorkTheTalk:
Let sane people keep talking. Hopefully, they will hear, and do what is right.

is not like they don't know what to do, they are just wicked.

LostMyZeal:
If they extend without investing massively in the right players that fit whatever philosophy will be unveiled next season, it'll all be crap and wailing will continue

One can make excuses for a coach having the wrong players, but what happens when same coach gets the support to buy players and he keeps buying rubbish?

if they give twn hang the best set of players in every position, he will still not perform. Ten hang is average. A coach that fight with every player. Man u will be making a big mistake if they did not let him go

helinues:
Forward ever, backward never

May we not remain stagnant in life oo. Amen

WhIch forward have you move to since 2015. Nigeria has not only be stagnant since 2015 but have been moving backward

gohf:
you are going through a period and a phrase in your spiritual growth if you stop it you may later regret it.

Prioritize those secular things that are NEEDED only and forget the rest that consume time and can be done later.


You don't need to switch between the two, you need to grow fully into God and then walk into the world a new being.

The world can wait. Jesus called a man and he gave an excuse, JESUS didn't say I will wait, infact Jesus response seemed harshed like when the rich man asked what more he needed to do and Jesus didn't stop him from leaving. Jesus said let the dead bury their dead, and you know burial is treated as extremely important but yet, Jesus said anyone who looks back isn't fit for the kingdom of God.


AS LONG AS IT'S THE HOLY SPIRIT LEADING YOU, FOLLOW. It's a process, it's a phrase.

thank you for this. Op, don't try to stop or slow down the process. Let me tell my own case. I was fervent for God. I was full of God that other area were affected. I was working then but other areas of never seem to improve. I really want a improve in my finance but God was building me for something great. Things was like this I told myself I want to SLOW DOWN a little bit. That was how I start regressing in spiritual things. That was my down fall. And up until this moment I have never fully recovered from that fall. As I am writing this am still regretting. If only I didn't slow down. Op pls what you are doing is best. Don't slow down or stop. God is building you for something great

Starhearts:
Ur sermon is too long.....

Who get time to dey read long epistles

this is what I don't like about his post. He write too long.

SadiqBabaSani:
Hahaha, I am not a fan of PBAT but he will suprise Workers.

One thing is that his Gov has met most of the agreement reached with labor after the hike in PM's price.

Before you think I am Agbadodiots check my post make I no release bazuka for you

which agreement has he met. One year after fuel subsidy, he has yet to increase minimum wage. Where is the CNG cars he promised. So tell us the agreement he has met

No body is good in everything. She is good other things just things just the cooking. So bear with her on that if she is a nice girl. What will you do in my own case, my wife is good in every other things but not good in bed. And we have been married for over five years now. I just ge :ot used to it. Though not all men could cope with this, but the essence is that we all can't be good in all things

guy you are a old timer for mentioning idowuogbo

BabbanBura:
Stop this intellectual laziness, listen to the clip and get to the context from which that phrase was lifted.

Some people don't have data to watch so they will just jump to the heading and start talking nonsense

You are a single father and you are asking if it advisable to marry a single mother. It is the single mother that need to be seeking advice here not you. Because hers is that she lost her husband but you, your wife left you. What did you do that will make your wife leave you. If I know her, I will advise her to into this

Ofunaofu:
I don't think so.

Everything about the minimum wage will be done on or before May 29. Its implementation will take longer than May 29. 

The reason I said so is because Tinubu is desperate for anything to hold on to, at least to show what he has been able to achieve in the past year in office.




Though it's my opinion

don't mind that guy talking nonsense. Minimum wage that this tinubu government will use as achievement come may 29

TheRealestGuy:
This is a personal opinion first off.

I have lived long enough as a Nigerian to understand that Nigerian politicians are a mostly a vile set of humans who can play politics with anything including terrorism and human lives.

I am of the view that the simple reason why the minimum wage increase is yet to be effected is the same reason I mentioned above - politics.

I think what the current administration plans to do is delay any minimum wage increases until 2026, so they can use it as leverage for the 2027 elections.

We have a criminal mafia in charge now and I understand how they think.

They will throw crumbs at Nigerian workers in 2026 in the name of an interim wage increase, make fake promises for when they are re-elected, and then leverage the desperation at that point.

You can bookmark this post and we will review by 2026 and you will see how accurate it is.

If this is not the height of evil then I don't know what is.

Nigerian politicians only scheme and plot how to win elections and corner our common wealth. The welfare of the people is the least of their concern and they will use every weapon including terrorism, hunger and extreme poverty to win elections.

I hope Nigerians wise up and resist this when the time comes.

that your opinion is off.
