FG Proposes N62,000 Minimum Wage, Labour Demands N250,000 by 0001Lagos(op): 10:12pm On Jun 07, 2024
The Federal Government has increased its offer of a new national minimum wage to N62,000, while organised labour has reduced its demand from N494,000 to N250,000.

This comes after the Minister of Finance, Wale Edun, submitted the cost implication of minimum wage to President Bola Tinubu.

A source confirmed this to our correspondent on Friday night in Abuja.

FG is already paying 30,000 minimum wage + 35,000 wage award = 65,000 naira.

Why the foolish offer? The starting proposal should have been 65,000 naira. But they love wasting time on things that need urgent attention.

Why is there so much hate amongst ourselves. Why are we so wicked and bent on seeing others suffer.
Indeed, if God has made a way for you to leave this country, leave and never return back.

Realdeals:

Why?

They were being understanding and reasonable calling off the strike so that govt can at least propose something tangible.

They agreed it would be more than 60k only to now add 2k they don't want to pay more that the added wage palliative they were giving workers for 6months

If they call for the strike again it would be intensive like the first time and nobody would blame them this time
