It's just unfortunate.... I thought President Tinubu will increase the minimum wage to something reasonable but was surprised to hear him say nothing about it.

He should not bother addressing us if he will not give us living wage...

MatrixCircle:
The former national Anthem has caused us so much badluck and trouble. So let it go

How? The second stanza of the anthem has always been a guide to me.
O God of creation, direct our noble cause.
Direct our leaders right, help our youth the truth to know...
So our leaders no longer need God's direction ?

Now that we are asked to go back to the old national anthem, does the old national anthem has it's own pledge...

Someone should please explain to us

Now that we are asked to go back to the old national anthem, does the old national anthem has it's own pledge...

Nonsense.... If another party wins the presidential election, they will definitely return it back. Who national anthem help

CannibalTorment:
Those people saying 100k for minimum wage, remember that 60k offer is just for level 1 staff and no one is on level 1, they start from level 4 upward, presently Lagos state state on level 8 are collecting around 140k, we should think of hyperinflation.

Nonsense.... Don't you know that if labour agree on 60k, the salary level 8 is receiving now will reduce..

chatinent:
Anything less than ₦1m minimum wage is a play thing.

Lolz... I'm looking at between 150k and 200k

Anyone who thinks tinubu has something tangible to offer Nigerians must be a joke
The man is a worse version of buhari

I have this believe that Tinubu will try all means to go above what the tripartite committee will arrive at..

As we all know that the tripartite committee on minimum wage are still in negotiations with NLC and TUC representatives.
I believe the negotiations will continue till the end of May and if the tripartite committee are able to agree on a new minimum wage before the end of May. President Tinubu may not approve it until June 12.
Aside the president celebrating his one year in office, there is nothing special about May 29. May 29 is only relevant after every 4 years when elected president's gives their inaugural speech.
June 12 on the other hand is Democracy Day and the president is expected to address the nation. President Tinubu may likely want to add the minimum wage in his Democracy address.
However, based on the Minister for labour remarks during workers day on the minimum wage that the financial effect on the wage will be in May. Civil servants should therefore be rest assured that they will enjoy arrears of the wage anytime the government decide to implement it.

Let's be realistic here 615k? Can any state pay such amount? Even the almighty Lagos state can not pay half of it as minimum wage

Senior man. NTA is finished.

So I thought but they have really improve..

I've always seen NTA as an old school channel that does not have anything to offer the present day generation in terms of information.
I've come to conclude that my thoughts were wrong having listened to their morning show of recent. These guys are good...

Opay gave me a big surprised. I made a transaction to a fraudulent account. It was days after I noticed that the account owner was a scammer.
I was so surprised to see a reversal of the money I transferred to that fraudulent account after 3 weeks. I got a message from Opay to be careful when making transactions. Since then, I feel so secure using Opay.

Abeg I no understand o..... Somebody should break it down for me. 25% and 35% wage award or what?

which world did they impact?

The tributes accorded to them shows that they impacted lives in different ways

Having watched the dignitaries that honored Akeredolu and Wigwe after their deaths. I concluded that it's not all about the people you know that makes you great but the impact that you make in people's lives.
But sincerely I'm thinking of my life. These men have impacted their world while me, I'm still busy looking for a better Job or business.
I need connection o

This is highly commendable... We are all feeling the hardship together. But sincerely NLC is gradually gaining my trust as the voice of the masses while TUC for the rich men.

gaby:
Laughable.

I don't even want to imagine the quality of food to begin with.

How do they intend to implement and carry this out?

Is it going to be a 3-meal per day and for how long?

Eat, Shit. Lather, rinse, repeat.

At least half bread is better than none

successmatters:
If you support this, you have poverty mentality.

I don't understand you...

The Governor of Lagos state in a media chat today has directed civil servants from grade level 1 to level 14 to work 3 days per week due to the economic hardship.
Also the Governor said the government will be collaborating with 1000 food vendors for walk in and eat daily free food.

Hmm.... Another wahala

Watianoengineer:
For those blaming APC and president Tinubu for the hardship in the country, are you all aware that UK and Japan are currently in economic recession? Is it APC and Tinubu that is ruling both nations? Nobody should blame APC and Tinubu for the rot the PDP government of Jonathan caused. What we are suffering today is the result of the Jonathan government's recklessness. Peter Obi and his PDP gang brought Nigeria to her knees. May God help our dear president Tinubu to fix the country like he did in Lagos.

Nonsense... What's our inflation rate 29.9% and what's uk inflation rate 4%...
