At least we have evidence with twitter accounts.
Nigerian are big then that amount.
Good news may Allah always protect ur administration
With this increment, all things will still remain the same,the cost of commodities will also collect the 30k from backyard.
Good to know & a good idea too
So do I celebrate? We that have been on contract staff in a multinational company, how does this signing affect me? I can't boast of 10k in my account talk more house rent, marriage etc.
Finally
good development
How is it breaking news, for doing the needful and something that should have been done a long time ago, is term breaking.. Backward country
Is still not enough
good one
What's breaking about it, that the lifeless has signed inflation bill? He could have pumped the difference into enhancing and subsidising the education/public schools, health care, housing sectors and social insurance for everyone would have been more apt.
Next Level Sure!
When a country as small as Ecuador can pay 120k. Nigeria we hail thee
Ahah? He never sign am since?
Kudos
Sad we are sill at 30k. Other countries have long moved ahead. We are not ready!
Good
Good
At last!
Hmmmm
Give minimum wage and take it back through tax and fuel increments
freematikk not even up to $100
I hope the several non viable, near bankrupt states will have no difficulty with implementation ?
The next bill should be to reduce the senates salary. The country can’t be having a bad economy yet few people are going home with fat salaries. Politicians should lead by example.
My thanks goes to bukolasaraki and also MBuhari for come into the same agreement on this one and make it happen today..
He is signing the bill because very very soon you will be buying fuel for 180 per litter
what buhari signing N3,000 for this minimum wage of a thing will it change Nigeria's economy for good?
Em 4no sign now abi na only em sabi pass
Glory to God. Sai Baba
this is a great news!
And let's watch how commodities market will react to this news.....rice,yam,sugar,flour,gari,salt,coal,palm oil and the likes.....
Na everyday he dey sign...may God save us all.
Till the day the masses know their worth, the country will continue in motion without direction. I guess 30k will satisfy the labour market. So it's a fair deal.
Allah ya nuna Mana mafi Alheri
u try for this
Welcome
Next Level loaded
Ok ooo
Good!!!
30k is too small. Politician with o level or even without certificate is earning more than 100k in a month. What a country are we?
Good...
Thank God he finally did it.
Ok oo
No excuses for the states
Our people die for lack of knowledge. Workers should ask for N100K minimum wage and put an end to fuel subsidy.
Ọpẹ ó. Will this affect corpers too😋
This is good news
👏
So when will it take effect and will there be arrears?
Good to know
