Abdullahi Sule, governor of Nasarawa, says governors are not opposed to the payment of minimum wage for workers.

Abdullahi Sule, governor of Nasarawa, says he and his colleagues across the country are concerned about the welfare of workers.

Sule said Nasarawa has been paying the N30,000 minimum wage since 2019 and has been providing additional benefits to workers. “We are waiting for the outcome of that committee, and that committee is not just looking at the federal government; it is looking at the state government and organised private sector.“You may find one or two states make certain statements, which is perfectly okay in line. Minimum is minimum; when they say minimum wage, it does not mean that somebody cannot be higher than that; it is dependent on your own cash flow and on your own position. So, I think that is the position.
