Details of Tinubu’s New Minimum Wage’s Proposal Emerges

The federal government, under President Bola Tinubu’s watch, is said to be proposing a new minimum wage of between N150,000 and N200,000 for the organised sector.

This is as if the government had fixed meetings with the leadership of organised labour. The meeting is expected to take place at the office of the secretary to the government of the federation (SGF), and government representatives on the tripartite committee on the new minimum wage will be in attendance.

The letter for the meeting was dated April 24 and signed by the permanent secretary to the SGF. The letter reads in part:

“The purpose of the meeting is to deliberate and agree on the government position on the new minimum wage, which will be presented at the next meeting of the triparted Committee”.

Recall that the Nigeria Labour Congres (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC), have made separate proposals for the new minimum wage, citing what they referred to as the economic realities.

They have urged the government to adhere to their demands for a living wage that would sustain an average worker over the rising cost of living in the country.
