It’s a start for a badly managed economy in the last 16yrs, without depleting our reserves and with the states able to pay

Approved minimum wage is below $100. How would a person survive with less than $100 in a month? NGRSenate HouseNGR CNN BBCAfrica AmnestyNigeria buzzman_a01 AriyoAristotle MobilePunch BBGAfrica cenbank

Corpers!!! Oya thank God. Lol

Madness. This won't reflect in the quality of living. Everything will just increase.

Wait oooo is Nigeria a country. .....?

After the 'onyinye mami water', somebody somewhere felt it is time to increase VAT by how many percent ?

Senate approves 30k as NNMW. FG to increase VAT......I smell inflation. Why not 'CONTROL PRICE......? ' if you know, you know!!

All the high rate of unemployment will no longer be much experience.God has endowed each state with various resources that can get their youths enough job.And add value to Nigeria GDP,but reverse is absolutely the case.

Nigeria as country need to be restructure.There are some state that can pay 50,000 minimum wages. Only if the country can be restructure. By gives State power to add value to their natural resource for market demand and just contribute some change to centre.

Still better, let's pray for more energy to do more

This is actually a nice step in the right direction. Although the gap between the rich and poor is still very high in Nigeria. This would go an inch in helping.. Just wish they could bring it to the private sector.. Most people work there..

nysc_ng Run me my check!!!

Senators that earn millions doing nothing monthly approves 30000 minimum for their labourers would be a better title. Awon werey

Nysc is under federal government now so they will surely benefit fm the new minimum wage.

crusatel_shang probably official

This new wage structure is less than $1 per day. 🤔 let it just reflect in peoples salary. No lip service please nassnigeria

When osun Still battling with Half/no salaries 😂

Please would this new minimum wage benefit Nysc too?

Will this reflect with NYSC? Would be nice

I'll believe when it is implented!!

OK.

Finally, at least 8th senate did something reasonable to Nigerian masses.

MusadiqZ How would u like 2 generate at least $1K per month like me, using an incredible method or skill that also generates $5.3 trillion a day for the global financial industry? Interested? Kindly DM me and let's help you become Financially free Forever!!! 💵💴📉📊📈📊

18,000 when 1 dollar is 140 is far better than 30,000 when 1 dollar is 365....if you know you know solacewrites

Sir_BiolaPr Everything complain wer der no approve complain, now wer der approve am complain e no do shaii Nigeria

After how long? 😕 Imagine Nigerian media company happily reporting this! 😒 Is there any senator receiving this amount they've refused to approve long before now? 😒😕

Whats nxt after the approval?

We should not be rejoicing over this sad news. Can the members that approved this shame of a minimum wage thrive on 30k monthly?

Osi_Suave How is this breaking news

30k this country is a big fat joke 😈

Even this amount is still very poor. We need a rethink on this.

'nExT lEevL cOnfIrMeD' 😏😏

Saraki finally does something noble with his senate presidency!

Now let's go for 50k..then 100k. Baby steps.

Any Governor who cannot pay N30,000 minimum wage must resign immediately. Governorship position must not be driving around in a convoy but having innovative ideas and plans of 21st century to effectively run a state.

Pls NASS should tell INEC inecnigeria to pay corpers in Enugu state their money completely. They are paying 9k instead of 26k.. Pure injustice after using them. Pls help them make this go viral.

Oloye Still Doing His Part Before Bowing Out

Pls practical implementation, let the masses begin to receive it ooh if nt this month the next one pls no story

Am speechless . Is 30k worth living for in Nigeria.

Zolecservices

I would I've said its a lie but since I've seen this news elsewhere

They don't have option

Finally...

Nice to here that
