ReplyDeleteNoted
ReplyDeleteWho wants to give u N615000 as minimum wage 😂😂😂. Make una try dey dey realistic na. Don’t make a joke of this.
ReplyDeleteI agree wt u. But then in govt admin, wen u r making a proposal to the chief executive, u mk the figures high, cos he wud never approve what u asked for, las las he wud use his red pen to slash it before approving.
DeleteThey have to start high o. If they make it 200k,govt will beat it down to 40k. So it's good they started at this figure. We all know it would never be more than 100k in the end. We pray say e go reach sef..
DeleteLet them keep playing
ReplyDeleteSome states claim they cannot pay 30k , you are mentioning 615k. Keep playing o
With the way things are going up daily,government will need to find a way to pay more. Why can't the so called government also cut cost. No more aboard medicals,all should be done in Nigeria. Cut their salaries and allowances. But greed would not let them.
DeleteThey can't pay but can embezzle billions of dollar
DeleteWell detailed 🙄🙄🙄
ReplyDeleteMake dem still dey play....
ReplyDeleteThe amount is not even high. It works out to a mere $400+. I pay around the same amount just for food monthly. Seems like a fair request for a living wage.
ReplyDeleteThis has got to be a joke right?
ReplyDeleteThis is not realistic abeg. The NLC should push fir a better economy. Their concern should be how the government can make export and import work. Once this is sorted out, naira will appreciate against the dollar and things will become relatively cheap.
ReplyDeleteIf N615,000 is approved as minimum wage, I bet you we will buy a bag of rice at 200k or more sef.
Pretty girlie, u kno there is smthn called mandate right? It is not part of the mandate of the NLC to push for import n export, primarily, their mandate is the rights and welfare of workers.
DeleteMinimum wage 615k?? Is alright 😆
ReplyDeleteOne of the problems with Africa is that Africans do not believe they deserve better. They are happy with struggle in their own lands because they have been taught to believe that is what they deserve by virtue of being Africans. We are no less than any other ppl on this planet. Black skin does not mean substandard.
ReplyDeleteThe money is there, if it wasn’t how would those roaches be stealing, dealing in corruption, educating their children in the best schools, having family doctors in the abroad and having dozens of properties with billions in their bank accounts. Teachers are making the equivalent of $30 monthly, some are making way less. Every person should be making a living wage. If it is impossible to pay at a higher rate then make education free, provide students with breakfast and lunches up to secondary school. Make tertiary education free, make healthcare free, provide good roads everywhere and easy access to water and electricity. You cannot ask ppl to accept low and unrealistic wages and then give them nothing to ease the cost of living. Pay them higher or pay them the same and create a society where they do not have so much out of pocket expenses for basic things. I am sick of Africans having to think of going elsewhere to survive while outsiders come into the continent and leave millionaires. When will governments start putting Africans first? When will a child born in a hut in some remote village know that they will have a great life just because they have been born in a great land?
