New minimum wage: N30, 000 not enough for workers – Gov. Obaseki laments

Governor Godwin Obaski of Edo State has said the new national minimum wage of N30,000 was not enough to take workers home.

Disclosing that his state was currently paying N25, 000, Obaski stated that N30,000 won’t be a problem for him to pay but it’s not enough for workers considering the economic situation of Nigeria. “I want to assure you, due to the work my predecessor in office did, we have currently the minimum wage of N25,000 in Edo state, so moving to N30,000 is not going to be a big thing for us at all.
