  1. With rising inflation, it is naive to demand for unreasonable wage increase. For increase to be sustainable, it must be marginal. NLC should apply common sense in its demand; to save our Nation from total collapse. Emmanuel Atuchukwu

  2. While i support that we Nigerian worker deserve a decent wages however determination of wages and salary is a function of productivity, revenue generated, level of skills, economic performance of the entity among many others. What NLC fixes as minimum (N615,000) is not only outrageous, not feasible and fail to consider the parameters mentioned above. The truth must be told Labour is just riding on cheap popularity contest. I think a realistic figure could be N100,000-120,000.

  3. 10:00 I don't like the way Rufai interrupted the guest from properly explaining how they came about the #615,000 minimum wage calculation. We are all very interested in his explanation but didn't get to hear him conclude due to Rufai’s interruption. He could be making sense after all!

  4. What Governor Obaseki has done is very Commendable 👏👏👏👏👏 it’s a Good Start…Currently the Highest paying in Nigeria 🇳🇬 meanwhile Other States are only paying N35,000

  5. These workers' organizations need to wake up and stand their ground. Why would a civil servant work all his life and still be poor but a politician works 6 months and become billionaire? What's special about the politician, what did they do besides retrogressing Nigeria?

    Nigerian film actors, music, students, and other individual development can match up with their counterparts abroad but Nigerian politicians can't and earn what made billionaires.

  6. Clowns masquerading as Labour union leaders. Why not start from the emoluments reduction at the national and state legislatures, executive (national and state), Judiciary( national and state). 615k is such a ridiculous ask which is never going to happen. Labour, needs to get back its credibility and reckoning that is if it ever had, else it remains the most docile union in Nigeria. As a nation that is dysfunctional in all sectors, I will be surprised that the labour union is any different. Let's not forget that labour did not protest against INEC in the last general elections with the glitch nonsensical narrative with IREV. In saner climes, an aggregation of labour unions will fight inec to its kneels. Today isn't a special day for workers but a day for sober reflection.

  7. Very reasonable talk by these two labour representatives. You don’t always bang the table and make noise when you’re fighting. Why then is your panel trying to put words into the mouth of your guests and goading them to agree with you that government is not listening to them.Happy Workers Day is a day to be happy with our workers, give them hope( not lamenting) for a better future

  8. Rufai the purveyor of negative and propaganda news. Very useless, hopeless always trying to bring down the government. When the naira appreciate he doesn’t talk about it because his life his full of negativity and it will remain so for him. Untill DSS charged him for treason Nigeria may not know peace. This same useless boy was defending Emefiele when he was destroying Nigeria currency but now that the audit report of CBN was out he never talks about it again but still continue to blame those putting things in place

  9. Oga stop wagging your tongue. Lagos is not a model

    Edo state has been paying 35k minimum wage for the last 8yrs.

    Now the governor of Edo state has increased it to 70k minimum wage. Can Lagos state try that?

    Edo nor be Lagos

    Edo is the new model for Nigeria now.

  10. The other law abiding citizens of this country that are not civil servants, how do you place their own increments? Stop focusing on civil servants alone. Always put your leg in the same shoe with the jobless and angry youth everywhere bearing in mind that they too deserve good package for their own survival. Not every time, civil servants! Civil servants!!
