We are hopeful that this President will do the right thing. The President had noted that the difference between N62,000 and N250,000 is a wide gulf.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow can any governor say he cannot pay? They cannot also be calling for the decentralization of the minimum wage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre their wages decentralized? Governors whose states are not contributing a dime to the national purse and who generate pitiable Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) are collecting the same amount as governors whose states are generating billions of dollars into the FAAC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey should decentralize their salaries and emoluments first.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, where is the governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki getting his money from? He is paying N70,000 minimum wage. This is the type of governor that should be emulated and not the lazy ones,\u201d Ajaero stated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Criticised some state governors, who were opposed to the higher minimum wage for workers over their lack of financial capabilities The Organised Labour has said there will be no strike on Tuesday, 11th of June, 2024 over the minimum wage negotiation with the Federal Government.
