Politics › Workers Demand N300,000 Minimum Wage Amidst Rising Hardship by ErnestR(op): 3:38pm On Sep 03
The Federal Workers Forum has written to President Bola Tinubu and the National Assembly, demanding an immediate review of the salaries of federal civil servants and an increase in the minimum wage from N70,000 to N300,000.

The letter, dated September 2, 2026, and signed by the National Coordinator, FWF, Andrew Emelieze and General Secretary, Ogundele Ayodele, was addressed to the Senate President and Speaker of the House of Representatives through the Clerk of the National Assembly, with President Tinubu, the Chief Justice of Nigeria, and the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation also listed among the recipients.

The forum also proposed a salary of N1.5m for Level 17 officers, arguing that the current wage structure no longer reflects the economic realities confronting federal workers.

Backing its demand, the workers said in the letter, “We call for justice and immediate wage review now, adjust the federal minimum wage to N300,000 and a maximum wage of N1.5m for the Level 17 officers.”


The FWF said the demand was necessitated by what it described as the incomplete implementation of the N70,000 minimum wage approved in 2024, claiming that federal workers had yet to receive the full consequential adjustment and associated allowances.

The group stated, “It will surprise you to hear that the Federal Government has not fully implemented the new national minimum wage since July 2024. We have been in the battle for full consequential adjustment of the new minimum wage.”

According to the workers, the 2024 wage review increased the minimum wage from N30,000 to N70,000 but resulted in what they described as a flat N40,000 increase across all levels of the federal civil service.

The forum said, “Only N40,000 was added to the salaries of every federal worker across all levels.”

The latest demand comes amid continuing disagreements over the implementation of the 2024 minimum wage and related allowances.

The N70,000 minimum wage replaced the previous N30,000 benchmark after negotiations between the Federal Government and organised labour, with the new wage framework subject to review after three years.

The FWF argued that the statutory three-year review period should not prevent the government from responding immediately to what it described as an emergency deterioration in workers’ purchasing power.

The forum said, “As a matter of fact, it is suicidal for the federal workers to continue in this ugly situation. Hence, based on the current cost-of-living crisis, it can only be a matter of justice that the federal wages be immediately reviewed to meet up with the current economic realities in Nigeria.”

The workers complained that the rising cost of food, transportation, accommodation, electricity, cooking gas and other necessities had made the N70,000 minimum wage inadequate.

“Federal workers have been enduring the situation, and everything has been frustrating and nauseating. We cannot cope again. Federal workers are dying in instalments; we are suffering in silence; our salary is too poor; it is not taking us home,” the letter stated.

Business › Is There Going To Be Another Global Economic Recession Or Meltdown by ErnestR(op): 12:43pm On Sep 02
Yes — another global recession is possible, but as of September 2, 2026, there is no solid evidence that a worldwide economic meltdown is inevitable or imminent.

The important distinction is between a normal recession and a 2008-style financial meltdown.

What the situation looks like now

The IMF said yesterday that global growth for 2026 is still around 3%, meaning the world economy is growing rather than contracting. However, it also says the risks are unusually high, particularly because of the energy shock, geopolitical conflict and very high global debt.

Several warning signs deserve attention:

Global government debt is extremely high — the IMF says worldwide public debt is approaching 100% of GDP.

Oil and energy prices are under pressure because of continuing Middle East tensions.

Global bond yields have risen sharply, increasing borrowing costs for governments, companies and households.

Trade tensions and geopolitical fragmentation could weaken investment and international trade.

The IMF specifically identifies prolonged conflict, renewed trade tensions and disappointing AI-driven productivity as downside risks.


Could it become another 2008?

Possible, but not the base case right now.

A serious meltdown would probably require something much larger—such as a major banking/credit crisis, sovereign-debt crisis, severe energy shock, or several of these occurring simultaneously.

In fact, the current situation has an unusual feature: growth is still positive while financial stress is increasing. That can produce a painful slowdown without necessarily becoming a global depression.

And what about Nigeria?

Nigeria could experience the effects even if the global economy doesn't officially enter recession.

Interestingly, Nigeria's position has recently improved in some respects. Moody's changed Nigeria's outlook from stable to positive, citing stronger foreign-exchange reserves, economic growth and improved resilience to external shocks. The World Bank expects approximately 4.2% Nigerian growth in 2026.

However, Nigerians could still feel a global downturn through:

lower oil demand → lower oil revenue → pressure on the naira → higher import costs → inflation → weaker purchasing power.

So I wouldn't tell you "a global economic collapse is coming." That would be speculation.

But I would say the global economy currently has enough vulnerabilities that preparing for a recession is sensible.

If you're asking because you're thinking about how to protect your money or make money during the next recession, I can give you a practical Nigeria-specific recession survival/investment strategy for 2026–2028.
Agriculture › Re: Why Are My Broilers Pooping Blood ? by ErnestR: 12:26pm On Sep 02
Contact a poultry veterinarian today if possible and have a fresh dropping sample examined.
Separate obviously weak chicks if practical.
Keep the litter dry and remove wet/soiled bedding, because coccidia multiply readily in contaminated litter.
Ensure they have constant access to clean drinking water.
Since you aren't currently giving an anticoccidial, ask your vet/agricultural adviser about an appropriate anticoccidial treatment and the correct dose for your specific product. Don't guess the dose because concentrations differ between products.
Don't give antibiotics randomly; they won't treat coccidia itself
Agriculture › Re: Why Are My Broilers Pooping Blood ? by ErnestR: 12:24pm On Sep 02
If you mean blood in chicken droppings/faeces, the most common cause is coccidiosis, a parasitic intestinal disease that is especially common in young chickens.

Other possible causes include:

Coccidiosis — often causes bloody or reddish-brown droppings, weakness, ruffled feathers, and reduced feeding.

Intestinal worms — some parasites can damage the intestinal lining and cause blood.

Bacterial infections — certain intestinal infections can produce bloody diarrhea.

Injury or irritation of the intestine/cloaca.

Severe intestinal inflammation from other diseases or toxins.


What to do

If several chickens are producing bloody droppings, or they are weak, losing weight, not eating, or dying, treat it as urgent. Separate visibly sick birds and contact a poultry veterinarian or experienced poultry health professional for diagnosis. Coccidiosis can become fatal quickly if untreated.

If you tell me the chickens' age, how many are affected, what the droppings look like (bright red, dark brown, watery, etc.), and whether they're showing other symptoms, I can help you narrow down the likely cause.
