The organised labour, comprising of  the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC), has called for a review of the N70,000 minimum wage.

They made the call even as the country celebrates the 2025 May Day on May 1.

The leaders of the NLC and TUC said since the removal of fuel subsidy by President Bola Tinubu on May 19, 2023, workers across the country have been having a hard time surviving.

Julius Laye, the chairman of TUC in Bayelsa State said Nigerian workers under the administration of Tinubu have had their worst times.

Laye said, “you know that the government introduced several taxes, and the hike in tariffs has impacted the workers negatively.

“The economic policies and the removal of subsidies have led to hyperinflation, so the minimum wage has become inadequate.

“Even the minimum wage is not enough to cover Medicare. Incidentally, they have money to fly out to seek better medical attention, but the Nigerian workers do not have the means to do so.

“We are worse off in this administration than we had ever been at any other time.”
