You Cannot Pay Your Gateman Or Driver Below N70,000 - Senate President by Goodvibes007(op): 8:03pm On Jul 24, 2024
'If you’re a tailor and you employ additional hands, you can't pay the person below N70,000. If you hire a driver or a gateman, you cannot pay them below N70,000' — Senate President, Sen. Akpabio explains the new minimum.

No problems.

My sales boy for my frozen food store will now be placed on 70k...

However to meet up, I have to increase the cost of my goods, or I sack him and stay in the shop myself whenever I'm free

In this present economy, even the ₦70k is ridiculous.
Their aim is for the common man to remain poor.

They keep talking about minimum wage when the major issue is the maximum wage collected by these politicians.

Reduce all their salaries and allowances and see how this country will have enough funds to execute critical projects.

The elites and politicians would be the first to break this law.

The US labor law is so independent and strong that a single indictment by any worker will expose the company to thorough investigation which may lead to sanctions but ours is a clime where any report by the worker(s) will lead to bullying and firing.

It is greediness that's the problem of private business owners in Nigeria. If you make profit of say 20k daily for 26days, you'll have 520k. If you pay your sales boy 70k and maybe spend extra 100k for other monthly costs and reinvest 100k, you'll have 250k left.

Mind you, I am just being modest with figures here because I know that many businesses generate more profits than I stated above.

But they all want to live in opulence while their employees suffer like slaves!

Apabiyo, you're high on squirts!
Cos if not that ya head don too big and running out of good ideas and thoughts you won't say this.

* Is everyone in Nigeria earning as govt?
* Is that lugubrious earnings by politicians commensurable with economy of Nigerians?
* You as a senate plesidemt, do you know that all ya earnings and arreas no suppose pass N3m?
* If economy nor spoil from ya bogus earning and bad governance, N20K for still dey valuable for market and workers ll gladly take as minimum wage.
* As some dey prepare to protest and some still dey reason say make dem no hijack am, this kind talk wey Apabiyo talk annoy people more.

So it's really a balablue country.
