The governors are the most useless, lazy and evil set of politician.

See the way they controlled local government and put under their armpit. All thanks to Obasanjo in 2003 when he wanted to win re-election.
Obj was a great president but he spoilt somethings in our politics mehn

Na him make these senators and reps de earn such ridiculous pay. Chaii

It's now clear that Governors are the major problems we have in this country called Nigeria.
Shame on them and their entire generations.

Who can't pay should resign, the nonsense with these governors is becoming too much, the federal government should allow the workers deal with them small this nonsense is becoming too much, they can't pay but they can loot.

They should focus on their resources then. Every state in the nation has multiple resources. Tap on the most populous first; labour.

Any monthly wage lower than 120,000 Naira means these leaders want poverty-riddled citizens who they’ll employ for dirty deeds.
You people are fighting the wrong fight

Una never serious

We are supposed to do protest about the wages senators earn and security vote

It is the reallocation of that money that will satisfy the minimum wage concerns

I’ve been saying this since my days in the university. Like it’s common sense. I was never a commercial or business student.

Increase the minimum wage to a reasonable amount; take half back and make basic necessities cheap and or free, no one will cry foul.

If you pay a cleaner 150k and take 50% from him or her while covering basic education and medical care, then subsidized transportation and drop the light bill or drop petrol price; they should pick one.

No one would cry foul. They’ll end up paying the same 60-70k the FG proposed but only just have to provide the social security that I mentioned above; which is their job in the first place.

This is the instruction given to then by the presidency so that it will be easy for them to announce 65k or there about.

If all the 36 states rejected it then what about Edo and other states that already pay higher. They want to keep wasting billions instead of paying the workforce.
Re: Governors Reject N60,000 Minimum Wage by RealKaydollar: 7:10pm On Jun 07, 2024
They are now playing politics. This people are not thinking about you and I. $40 usd per month and they say is too high but can give 100usd to get votea of the hungry citizens.

My take is that every body no matter your political should be paid the same way, house of reps, senators chairmen, etc.

I think it high time we merge some states...
So, when you merge the states; won't you merge the populations and the workforce also increase. Impact of merging will not be much, and the marginalization cry will also increase across merged towns and cities

No mind dem. If you want to strike, strike for better thing.

Where in the world do politicians make such outrageous salary? Strike to bring their salaries down. You will also cure inflammation in the process.

As for outrageous Minimum Wage, you better be careful. Abacha refused to pay until starving people beg to come back to work.

Dey play, you hia

Lifematician:
My own question is what happened to the removed subsidy? Why can't Nigerians enjoy from subsidy funds? Why is the federal government planning to borrow another $6.6 billion? why must Nigerians threaten the government with strike before they get anything; and why at all?
That's why obi should be elected as president. His exploit in managing of funds and other stuffs was superb.

Nigeria cannot pay minimum wage.
But can be given people freebies for pilgrimage.
Nonsense country!!
Enough bravery to remove the fuel subsidy but not enough to stop that of the pilgrimages: just enough bravery to suffer the helpless.

Tell Tinubu to remove subsidy there would be enough funds to pay 150k
silly submission as usual
Re: Governors Reject N60,000 Minimum Wage by membranus: 7:37pm On Jun 07, 2024
All the governors in this country are criminals, looters, selfish and cruel with no compassion for the citizens they rule over.

They use the little infrastructural projects they embarked on to deceive the people that they are working, giving the workers their minute wages, dividing the rest between themselves and their intimate cronies.

They should all be giving a lifetime jail if any strongman took over power.

Lagos and Edo State have gone ahead
Wage award is not the main obstacle to salary increases. Adding N30,000 to lower-income earners doesn't mean you add the same to professors. Some will get N200000 added to theirs based on grade level in the service.
