The Nigeria Governors’ Forum, has assured the Nigeria Labour Congress, Trade Union Congress, and the workers of an improved and sustainable minimum wage.
Â
Despite May Day celebrations on Wednesday, the government refrained from announcing a new minimum wage, citing its reluctance to accept labour’s proposal.
Â
The NGF, in a communique signed by its Chairman and Kwara State Governor, ABDULRAHMAN ABDULRAZAQ, stated that it is assessing each state government’s fiscal capacity and the potential effects of different proposals to determine an enhanced minimum wage that can be feasibly sustained by the states.
