It also came at a time when the National Assembly was on a break. Personally, I think the timing of this hike is very wrong. Nigerians are grappling with many challenges.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo put this fresh responsibility on them is very unfair. Nigerians are yet to recover from the fuel subsidy removal of last year. Many Nigerians are still grappling with the ripple effects that removal had on them. To now come up with this is wrong.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe that the timing is wrong. There ought to have been some consultations, especially with the National Assembly as representatives of the people. We were not consulted. We saw the news like every other Nigerian.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe inflation is still very high. The prices of food commodities, drugs, transportation, school fees, and other daily expenditures are still on the high side. To now add this new burden is unfair.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe minimum wage has not been increased. Many state governments are yet to even pay the current minimum wage of N30,000. How do we expect the people to survive? We\u2019ve to be very realistic and feel the pulse of the people we represent as a government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor me, I think the Federal Government should first of all provide stable electricity, reduce the inflation, stabilise the naira, and prices of food commodities. Then, the purchasing power of Nigerians must significantly improve before we can place a fresh responsibility on them as a government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Federal Government needs to give the National Assembly the opportunity to also step in and consult because we represent the people. We feel their pulse, and we know what they\u2019re going through right now.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ndume condemned the move and called on the Federal Government to reconsider its position in the interest of Nigerians.
