BREAKING: Fear Over Strike Resumption As Labour Rejects New FG Minimum Wage Offer

Disquiet was brewing on Friday night after the Federal Government increased its offer of a new national minimum wage to N62,000, well below the expectation of organised Labour which went on strike in anger to the N60,000 offer earlier offered by the federal administration.
GWG.ng reports that labour had lowered its demand of a new minimum wage to N250,000, well below the N494,000 proposed by labour.

The organized private sector also backed the government offer of N62,000.

President of the Trade Union Congress, TUC told reporters at the end of the meeting that government must offer what he described as a living wage.
