If not for his bizarre utterances and behavior sometimes,

5 of Wike's type in strategic areas like Power, Health, Works, Agriculture and Finance will make so much difference in terms of development.

The man is in touch with reality, doesn't make empty promises or use common government 'english' like "shall", "going to" etc.

He is a talk and do kind of person.

Still not enough but better than what they had before...

We should now focus on security as our priority now..
Nigeria needs to be safe again for investors and especially farmers so that more people can go into farming in a bid to crash the prices of food products....

With true patriotism, hard work and doing things the right way... Nigeria will work again...

U can't be a yahoo boy, or a hook up girl... Or a kidnapper and you're complaining of a bad government...

U are the bad government!!

Re: Wike Approves ₦70,000 Minimum Wage For FCT Workers by elasticlala:
Even Benue state approved 75k and FCT is approving 70k months after other states already started paying?
I’m sure he even reluctantly approved it. This is how you know people who do not have the interest of others at heart. All you are good at is going about doing eye services, commissioning roads that are not top priorities.
Idiot!

Re: Wike Approves ₦70,000 Minimum Wage For FCT Workers by Bendeco02:
Abuja supposed approve over 100k

Life is not easy here

Is the 70k for rent or transportation?

70,000×12 = #840,000

So, a mature man will be going to work from monday to friday, from january till December just for 840k grin

Politicians that can't manage 10 million in a month will be telling their citizens to endure with 70k mimimum wage.

Funny country undecided

E no reach 50 dollars ...


No go dey celebrate rubbish ... 70k ? Is a reflection of how wicked the nigger is.

Imagine a word where the politicians are paid 70k monthly (of which I boldly say that is what they are worth ) because everything they do is actually live on the gullibility of the people backed by fear of unmistakable brutality of the security apparatus.

All politicians of tomorrow are yahoo boys right now .

The ones that were drug pushers in the 70s and 80s are now the ones in control .

Abuja should be at least 200k.

This town is crazy
