Infact it’s serious issue oo
Now ordinary labour (helper ) collecting 3500-4500
Bricklayer 4500-5000 per 5-6hrs

My supplier called me this morning that TMT tiger rod is now 470k per tn
f

You said ordinary labor and I laugh . Bro those people you called ordinary are the engine rooms of every construction so please remove that word ordinary .

And 4500 is no even justifying the work in respect to pay . The youth are realizing they’re in modern slavery thanks to the government!

They will lift blocks , lift concrete , mix sand for good solid 8 hours just to get 4500? That’s an average of 563naira ! Bro it’s slavery you and I that have good education and good job will never accept that . And I’ve done those cheap labors so I know whats up .

I left my base to the base of my laborers and bricklayers December they were very happy ! I’m talking a distance of an hour inside ibadan ! Then I knew not even the money we pay them makes them happy as the visit I gave them which made them feel happy !

I watch this boys climbing roofs and supplying concrete to their boss . Please 4500 is not even worth the effort they contribute in construction if we are being fair ! This boys working in sun and rain and we chill in ACs. It always break my heart . Nigeria is unfair to us ! The labors in ibadan take 2500 now imagine what 2500 can carter for !

When we start paying per hour that is when we will know why the youth are no more interested in apprenticeship or artisan works . We know why people have suddenly realize it’s a modern slavery !

If I’m to ask how much do you think is fair to pay per hour to those laborers please answer .

We no Dey try for this country

Rotech, I pay more that far back 2017 for one of the electrical Engineer here. It gets my attention when the guys started complaining, this is after his professional fee. This is to show how some of these Engineers are so greedy.

It's an unskilled job, and there is a large pool. It really comes down to demand and supply.
