The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has rejected the N22, 500 proposed by governors as the new minimum wage.

The governors under the aegis of the Nigeria Governors Forum, NGF, met on Tuesday and adopted N22, 500 as the new minimum wage against the N30, 000 which the organised labour had settled for after extensive deliberations.

Addressing journalists after their meeting on Wednesday, the NLC leader, Ayuba Wabba said: “The demand of Organised Labour is not N30,000; our demand is N66,500.

“We wish to reiterate our position adopted at our National Executive Council (NEC) meeting of 23 rd October, 2018 that any figure below N30,000 will not be accepted by us.

“We call on our members to continue to mobilise in preparation for the commencement of an indefinite strike on the 6th of November, 2018, if by then necessary steps have not been taken to adopt the recommendations of the Tripartite Committee.”
