PRESIDENT TINUBU TO MEET WITHORGANIZED LABOR ON NEW MINIMUM WAGE.

President BOLA TINUBU will today meet with the Organized Labor in Abuja to further discussions on a new minimum wage for workers in Nigeria after he invited the leadership of the Nigeria Labor Congress and Trade Union Congress to the meeting expected to be held at the Aso Villa.

The President is expected to make a decision on the 62,000 Naira proposal of the government and private sector side; as well as the 250,000Naira demand of Organized Labor.

This is coming about a month after the President said in his Democracy Day speech on June 12, 2024, that an executive bill on the new national minimum wage for workers would soon be sent to the National Assembly for passage.
