While Tinbu is collecting Lagos pensions after leaving office for the past 20 years

tunjijones:
While Abia state is still paying 30 thousand naira as minimum wage. Competing with zamfara and Sokoto state.

It's such a shame.

Do not believe Uzodinma the Kekere-Ekun appointed Supreme Court Governor until he pays it.

The words of a known Maurice Ibekwe associate and 419er should not be taken seriously until implemented with the backing of the law.

They make pronouncements, their gullibles clap and it ends there.

How is that your headache? Are you a medical doctor?

A governor has done an upward review of minimum wage in his state and rather than commend the governor, you're here blabbing "is it before or after tax"! During tax ni😂😂😂 all the enemies of good news will have their own share of what they pray for!

I am a medical doctor.

I know better than anyone that when politicians announce news like this, there is a lot being left out.

They will tax that money so much that the recipients of the increased salary are often worse off than before the salary increase. Meanwhile the public still thinks they are receiving the full amount and will increase prices. In the end, truly worse off than before. It's just one big publicity stunt

COMPAQ:
Before tax of course? Where in the world does any one annouce a net salary figure? isn't it always gross!

In any job you've done, did they tell you your salary was the net figure?

some will tell you after tax

Now i see what you mean.

The reason I snapped initially was because I see Gov. Hope as one of the governors making a difference in the South Eastern States, especially when it comes to infrastructure, but his people have never said anything good about him. I was in Imo state sometime in May and i marveled at the changes i witnessed compared to what I used to know. Then I started to wonder why his people do not have good things to say about him..

The bottomline, to me, is that now that the federal government has empowered all the governors and the local government chairmen, they should look inwards and decide on what they can do to make this needed difference in the domain so that development can go round.

None of them has any excuse for non performance now.
