Minimum Wage: Pay Workers Their Demand, Shehu Sani Tells Governors by Limitednow: 9:54am On Oct 31, 2018
Shehu Sani, Senator representing Kaduna Central at the Senate, has urged State Governors to pay workers the amount they are demanding as new minimum wage.

Mr Sani gave the advise on Wednesday while reacting to reports of what the governors are willing pay as the new minimum wage.

State governors rising from an emergency meeting on Tuesday proposed to pay N22,500 as against the currently paid N18,000.

The proposal of the governors is below the N30,000 amount the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), the umbrella body of workers in the country, are demanding.

They had threatened to embark on a nationwide industrial action if the government failed to agree to their demand on or before November 6.

While advising the governors to heed to the demand of the NLC, the lawmaker said the nation’s economy could afford to pay the amount demanded by the labour unions.

“NLC’s nationwide mass protest is commendable,” Mr Sani said of the planned downing of tools by workers in a tweet.

“Those who can pay 22k as minimum wage should just add 8k to make it 30k.

“Nigeria’s economy can sustain it.The struggle must continue,” he said.

The lawmaker added that he will strongly back the issue when the matter is tabled before the upper legislative chamber.

“I will add a strong voice of solidarity to this on the floor of the senate,” he added.

Apchit party has really taught Sen. Shehu Sani a lesson he will never forget in his entire life.
Since he has learnt his lesson, I think I stand with him on this issue.

They should cut down on the cost of maintaining both executive and legislators at both state and federal levels, use the money to care for nigerian workers who are doing more than what these useless politicians are doing..

I hate when people talk without knowing facts

States make say 5 billion per month and at 18k has a wage bill of 3.5 billion a month

So less than 2% of the population is meant to take 80% or more of our income?

Let Labour give us the mathematics to back their demand... Let's see how many percentage of our income they want

Before u accuse me the total money allocated to the national assembly can't pay workers salaries for a month...

The money allocated to the executive can't pay salaries for a month also

This I have with fact

National assembly budget is 150bn ..wage bill is 166bn

There you have it.. And that's 166bn when u have 18k minimum wage.. So at 30k it would be over 300k

And 3.6 trillion naira a year to pay a group of federal civil servants In a year. .when most of them are un serious

Minimum wage under the present corrupt Nigerian system is not feasible.

Restructure the system and let every state control their resources and fix their own wage.

As for Nigeria in the present, nothing good can come out of it.

They have no reason not to pay workers! They stash workers salaries into their account and that one will be yielding heavy interest for them!

Wicked leaders we have in Nigeria, I tell you!

Any governor that cannot pay the meagre sum of N30,000 minimum wage should resign! Simple!

Let those that are capable step up!

No story!

In addition any governor owing salary should be publicly humiliated!

No stories!

We are tired of their excuses while they and their families live a flamboyant life at our expenses.

Enough is enough!
