Labour Rejects FG’s N48,000 Minimum Wage Proposal

Members of the organized labor union have lambasted the federal government for offering Nigerian workers the N48,000 minimum wage.

The government’s position was presented to labor at the resumed tripartite committee meeting on Wednesday.

In protest, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress of Nigeria (TUC) walked out of the meeting, which was held virtually.

The Congress accused the government and members of the organized private sector of disgracing them with what they described as “ridiculous offers.”.

It was gathered that the government offered N48,000, just as members of the organized private sector offered N54,000.

In a joint statement read to reporters by President of the NLC, Joe Ajaero, and Deputy President of the TUC, Comrade Tommy Okon, the two labor centers said the wage proposal by the government was “not just a mockery but an insult to the dignity of workers.”

Okon said the Bola Tinubu-led government was not serious about giving workers a living wage.

Recall that the NLC and TUC proposed N615,000 as the minimum wage, citing the high cost of living as the yardstick for the proposal.
