Na lie. Edo workers have never received complete Salary for about 5 years now. He doesn't even pay pensioners at all. That's why pensioners protest at ring road every week

State Governors, Increase Workers' Wages Now!

Edo State has set a commendable example by raising the minimum wage to N70,000, reflecting true leadership and commitment to the welfare of its workers amidst the harsh economic realities. Governor Godwin Obaseki has shown that the well-being of workers must come first.

[color=#000000]Why are you yet to implement similar wage increases for your suffering indigenes? The economic conditions are tough, and your workers are struggling to survive on inadequate wages. It is unacceptable to prioritize infrastructure projects over the immediate need to improve the livelihoods of your people. Roads and buildings mean nothing if the people who use them cannot afford basic necessities.[/color]

Edo State has shown that it is possible. Follow suit, prioritize your workers' welfare, and ensure they receive a livable wage. The time for excuses is over. Act now, and let the dividends of democracy reach every worker and their families.

Na lie. No governor even Lagos state has been able to implement fully the even 30k minimum wage. What they have been doing is pay the least worker 30k and did consequential adjustment for other workers on higher level. Same thing he will do with this 70k romour if at all. Workers don surfer undecided

Nigerians have been so battered that even a good gesture is seen as a set up. Even though Obaseki has few months to go, Edo workers should not overthinks this. Collect it, enjoy it. This would be a challenge to anyone that wins whichever party.

We no go still vote Obaseki's candidate,even if he pays 200k as minimum wage. He should refund Edo workers all the unpaid arrears.

For over 4 years now, Obaseki has been paying Edo workers salaries in percentage. Edo workers rarely get up to 50% of their Salary. Edo people are wiser. We are voting Monday of APC
You are a bloody liar. Chai. APC e-rats and propaganda. My mom is a retired civil servant and her salary gets paid in full talk less of someone who's still in service. This is how you guys used propaganda to put Buhari in power.

Lies.
Two of my Uncle's and 3 of my Aunt's are retired civil servants in Edo. I have first hand information about Pensioners in Edo. Obaseki has not been paying them for over 6 Years now.

Since you claimed Obaseki has been paying pensioners, why are they protesting in Ring Road every week?
