The N70,000 minimum wage announced by Edo State Government on April 29 has been described as a Greek gift hurriedly put together because of the governorship election coming up on September 21, 2024.

A Benin based organisation, the Edo N’Okpa Movement, in a statement, by Emovon Osaretin, its national convener, said that the N70,000 minimum wage was vote-buying antics ahead of governorship election.

The group also drew the attention of Governor Obaseki to the Benin-Ugo-Abraka road, leading from Sakponba road to Abraka, which it said has been ongoing since 2016.
