The Federal Executive Council on Tuesday decided to step down a memorandum on the report from the Tripartite Committee regarding the new national minimum wage.
Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, who made the announcement, during a press briefing at the State House in Abuja explained that the council opted to delay action on the memo as the Federal Government is not the only stakeholder involved in the national minimum wage issue.
“I want to inform Nigerians here that the Federal Executive Council deliberated on that and the decision is that because the new national minimum wage is not just that of the Federal Government, it is an issue that involves the Federal Government, the state governments, local governments, and the organised private sector and of course, including the organised labour.
“So I want to state that on the new national minimum wage, Mr President is going to consult further so that he can have an informed position because the new national minimum wage, as I said, is not just an issue of the Federal Government,” Idris stated.
