The Nigeria Labour Congress announced today that it would push President Bola Tinubu for a minimum salary of N250,000 when they meet at the State House in Abuja on Thursday.
Benson Upah, the NLC’s Head of Public Affairs, stated that Labour would not compromise on its N250,000 plan when meeting with the President.
“Despite the fact that the cost of living has since increased, we are still going to the table demanding N250,000.” We have acted in a very patriotic and reasonable manner,” Upah said our correspondent.
In keeping with Tinubu’s pledge to have more stakeholder consultations on the minimum wage, labour representatives were invited to a meeting with the president.
Approximately one month has passed since the President stated in his Democracy Day speech.
