The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Adams
Oshiomhole, has questioned the handling of the process of
implementation of the N30,000 new minimum wage.
Oshiomhole, a former President of the Nigeria Labour Congress,
spoke in Abuja during a reception held in honour of the
Director-General of the International Labour Organisation, Guy
Ryder.
The former governor of Edo State also called on stakeholders to
handle the new minimum wage process differently.
He said, “We have to do things differently about the minimum
wage. So, if every other cost is changing and labour cost is
constant, somebody is being squeezed.
“Rising crisis, stagnant wages, a very miserable lifestyle, and
you have to fight for that.
“We now see in Nigeria the difference between signing an
agreement and the challenge of translating those laws, and even the
contradiction of signing laws first before getting consultants to
tell us how to implement these laws.”
