Moving on to Labour matters, the Nigeria Labour Congress – NLC has listed seven demands from the Federal Government ahead of the May 1, 2024 Workers’ Day.

 

Aside from demanding for a new minimum wage, the NLC is also asking for the creation of state and local government police to tackle insecurity in the country.

 

The congress also stressed that states and local governments, as well as the organised private sector, must pay the new minimum wage when it is eventually approved.

 

The 2024 Workers Day is particularly being looked forward to as it is expected that President BOLA TINUBU may unveil the newly proposed minimum wage for workers in the country on that day.
