Report reaching us from Oyo State states that the ongoing meetings with the Joint Negotiating Council and Government representative on the 30,000 minimum wage has again ended in a deadlock. This is contrary to many People's expectation going by the on the Governor's statement and stance recently on worker's welfare.

It was gathered that Oyo State governor, Engr Seyi Makinde has assured workers in the state that he will pay an "Agreeable, Affordable and Sustainable minimum wage to workers in the state" while making a speach recently at the New year prayer session usually organised for workers in the state.

While negotiations still continues we are expecting details and news on this later!

You mean he should eradicate poverty in just 6 month?
You are the one that needs to donate your brain to the nearest Hospital!

Myde4naija:
you mean gov makinde has eradicate poverty in Oyo States?


If yes, your brain need a medical check up.

Are you a leaner? Or you are thinking with your mouth? Oyo State case is a different matter entirely. Even the goats and Sheeps in Oyo State know that Seyi won with clear margin!
If Dictator Buhari tries rubbish, The fire in Oyo will consume him

Difrent:
Supreme Court was not bribed or coerced to give judgement in favour of PDP in zamfara but now that it seems you will lose the Oyo state case you have started accusing revered judges of Supreme Court of bias and corruption and attempting to intimidate them, that won't work, the courts don't do emotions but facts and figures.

You people didn't lemme finish my story. I would have gone on to tell how people stay here for even up to a year without a job, surviving on stipends from home. How some borrowed money to move over, ended up with 80k naira jobs and creditors back home are threatening their parents. And I would have gone on to mention what a decent salary here should be. And how much you must earn before your spouse can come live here with you.

But then I've said many people come here with little or no information of what's truly at stake. Relying only on info got from the agents who are more concerned with their commission and end up making bogus claims and job promises.

This still doesn't change the fact that there are people making it here big time especially in certain sectors. Dubai labor market belongs to professionals and I did mention that here is not like Europe/America where people are able to do even up to 3 odd jobs a day.

And no I'm not working for 500k a month. I work for the government ministry of education. People whose annual salary is my monthly in Nigeria are able to lead very stable lives.

The middle east in recent years has been the perfect destination for qualified teachers world over with the UAE topping the list. That your friends are in Dubai living in squalor because of hurried poor decisions and a lack of opportunity doesn't change that fact. And yes the sweetest catch of Dubai earnings is that its tax free.

The health sector is also very juicy. Nigerian doctors here earn 20,000 dirhams with 2 years of getting their liscences. This is aside the 2/1 bedroom flat accommodation if you're married/single, school fees allowance for two kids, to and fro flight on a yearly vacation to home country etc

There are engineers here in ADNOC, a big employer, earning 35k aed on a monthly. Yet in this same Dubai you see my nigerian engineer graduate brothers working as baristas for 1500aed. The difference between these two is just one or two certifications that the latter did not know to get

This dichotomy is what i was hoping i could bridge by sharing my experience but some oversabi people would not lemme be.

Poorboy:
The op I need the new structure for conraiss may I know my salary

Sorry bro, this is what I have for now!

The Oyo State Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) through it's Joint negotiating Council on Monday sent a letter to the Oyo State Governor Senator Isiaq Abiola Ajimobi giving him seven (7) days ultimatum to resolve some industrial issues and stating many reasons why industrial Harmony can no longer be guaranteed in the State. Chief among those issues is the non implementation of promotions arrears since it approved promotion for civil servant in the State last year March.

According to a reliable source in the State workforce, the governor has refused to give civil servant promotion since he came to Office 8 years ago, the only promotion he effected was the one the governor he took over from has done since 2011. Having approved promotions from 2012-2016 he has still refused to make it financially effective, meaning it's just a paper promotion.
"This is strange because there is no where in the world where a worker will receive promotion and it will not have any financial implication", the worker said.

The workers also equally wants the State government to address other issues relating to the workers welfare!
