Had it been FG has agreed on #100k from day one, they will still ask for more. Before you said #100k, did you put private sectors and some states that are currently struggling to pay the current minimum wage in to consideration? . As of now, did you know some married men are still collecting less than 30k as salary eg. Gatekeeper & some teachers working in small private schools, and we are going to the same market.
They haven't increased the minimum wage, many companies have shutdown because they can't meet up with their obligations and leading to increase in unemployment rate.
In summary, our problem is not minimum wage, the major problem is inflation.

I couldn't help it but to agree with you. It's constitutional to review MW periodically, but the economic state of the country now needs urgent attention towards inflation and price regulation. This is the underlying cankerworm biting deep into the fabric of our national economy.

Are you aware that some states are still paying N18k minimum wage?

Which state? Be specific

eliyke:
normal d wage no suppose pass 70k,I use to knw one government worker who goes to wrk only if he gets information that there supervisor is around.many of Dem are just collecting salaries 4 nothing, including ghost workers.d state government hv a lot to do.And labour should b considerate bcoz d higher government pay d higher inflation we will witness

Honestly, something has to be done on this because staff like that are every government organization. I wish staff like that can be fish out and get in people that are ready to work.

I also know people that normally goes to work twice or trice in a week. They resume to their business instead of where they are collecting salary.

Listen, if Tinubu continue to be worse than Buhari, thats what he'll be remembered for; as the worse president Nigeria ever had

Abacha still remains the worst president in Nigeria not Tinubu ...Tinubu has given you school loans , increasing minimum wages , paying some vulnerable Nigeria stipend , capital projects is being carrying in your village courtesy Tinubu , started improving infrastructure , during Tinubu regime the we have indigenous national carrier (Air Peace Airline ) something GEJ never achieve ....
Don't worry before the end of his tenure , you will fall in love with him....

Omo k'k'omo

Was Abacha a president? He was a coupist!

Tinubu remains the worst unless he improve things more than Buhari left it

Use your heads. President Tinubu CANNOT dictate the salaries of Senators or Representatives. They are a separate, independent and self-financing arm of government. They can even impeach the President. The President cannot even determine Judges salary. If the NLC is not happy with their pay, then they should face them. They should not make the rest of us pay for their beef with Senators or the National Assembly. Ask for something reasonable, like ₦75,000, and almost 100% of the populace will support you.

Who knows your exist?

why people in govt go dey make millions and billions while others dey suffer

It's not their fault as you think. The people who employ them haven't given them any job to do.
When you replace them you will get to know there's nothing to do. Just sit down and wait till 4 pm and go home and resume the next day. After some time boredom will set in and you don't like going everyday especially when you know that nobody will query you.

This is why nigeria is backward, minumum wage is for unskilled labour, i.e cleaners, gatemen, messengers, you should ask yourself why should someone want to limit himself/herself to just being a cleaner/gateman and want a decent life on that alone?
Those are supposed to be part-time and temporary jobs, but...what do you think would happen to the economy when gatemen begin to earn high as 200k monthly up suddenly from 30k and maybe professors would be paid 15million monthly.

You don't understand it. Minimum wage benefits all category of workers . Once a new minimum wage is signed into law, it will lead to a consequential adjustment in the salaries of those at the top .

You can hate Tinubu but your cannot dispute his achievements in the last 365 days ....he has awarded universities to all the 6 gel political zone in the country so that your generation yet unborn can be educated...He has improved all the 56 ministry and agencies of government....
Have you checked all the work project Wike is doing Abuja ...all these are not automatic....they can only happens through efforts of those people's who have determined to make the necessary change in the country.....


I can assure you before 2027 election, I wouldn't need to cajole you before casting your vote for Jagaban

On your mandate we all stand

All indices of development are far in the negatives but you're majoring on irrelevant achievements

You dont get my point, offcourse it would cut accross board but that isnt the point, increasing it much more than 60k would only encourage laziness and worsen inflation, it is counterproductive.
Like i said earlier, those on minimum wage are not supposed to rely on only one source of income.

All are still bad , having employment without giving anything to do and refusing to go to work you are been paying for all because you don't do anything.


It's all part of the bad system.

Yes It's all part of the bad system and that's why you shouldn't blame most of the civil servants for not doing anything. Nothing for them to do because the people who employed them don't really care.

Most of the employment into the civil service in Nigeria at the moment is " come join us chop free government money" ,and that's why if you're not connected to those in power, you won't get the job easily.

Only very few are civil servants and those ones were employed when things were not as bad as it's now.

The rest are friends and family members of political office holders given the appointment to receive salaries and do nothing.

Every salary earner shouldn't rely on their salary alone,not only those earning minimum wage.

And how does increasing it beyond 60k going to make them lazy?

How you aware that the lowest paid worker in some companies in Nigeria, especially those in the oil and gas, are earning above that? Why are they not lazy?

And you do you know it will also cause inflation? We're already experiencing hyperinflation and you're talking of inflation. Inflation is normal. As long as economic activities are going on in any country ,cost of living will continue to rise . It cannot be stopped but only managed so it doesn't result in hyperinflation.

"Irrelevance" because there is nothing your enemy can do to please you, abi?

Perhaps you will list some of your own KPI ( Key Performance Indicator) for this role ....then let's take it from there.

We're in Tinubu's best times, it'll only get worse.

I am amplifying Tinubu's failure. I'm happy he is failing so that Nigerians would know that the criminal drug baron never built Lagos. In fact he has shown to be extremely incompetent if the dvllard Buhari is better than him interms of performance

Nzogbu2012:
And this is why your life is getting worse daily ....

See there are lots of concn. HCL in the market ....go and buy it for yourself and family ....then lock up your door with your family and drink it hot ....then you will be free from all these pessimistic attitudes
