Oshiomhole Returns To Labour Tenents, Warns There Will Be No Christmas If …

Edo North Senator and former Governor, Adams Oshiomhole, has emphasized the need for the nationwide implementation of the N35,000 minimum wage to ensure Christmas celebrations for all workers.

Speaking at the 8th Quadrennial Delegates Conference of the Non-Academics Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions (NASU) in Abuja, Oshiomhole also highlighted the disparity in wage implementation across states.

He urged the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) to address the selective application of the minimum wage, emphasizing that all workers, whether in the public or private sector, should receive the N35,000 minimum wage. Oshiomhole stressed that failure to pay the minimum wage would result in no Christmas celebrations for employers, urging a comprehensive solution to ensure workers’ rights are upheld nationwide.

“It should not be a selective application. The N35,000 must affect all workers. It has to go around all workers in Nigeria, whether public or private, that is the logic of nationwide strike.

“Please tell the NLC President that those are the issues that they must solve this December, nobody goes home without that N35,000. “Whether such a worker is working for the federal, state, local government or the private sector, that N35,000 must be paid. If you don’t pay, there will be no Christmas for you as an employer whether public or private sector.”- Oshiomhole said in his assertions on the nationwide minimum wage to all workers.
