NLC Warns State Governors: Uphold Minimum Wage Agreement

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has issued a solid warning to state governors against unilaterally determining the minimum wage, emphasising that it is a collective agreement crucial for ensuring a minimum standard of living for workers. NLC spokesperson Benson Upah highlighted that the national minimum wage is a wage floor and not merely an individual state pay structure. Allowing governors to set wages independently could undermine workers' welfare and harm the national economy. Join us as we discuss these critical issues with Shina Loremikan, Convener of the Coalition of Civil Society Organizations For Good Governance, who provides insights on the implications and possible solutions. Watch now to understand the full scope of this vital discussion.
