The Nigeria Labour Congress has said it will embark on a nationwide protest on March 10, 2021 over moves by the National Assembly to remove the national minimum wage from the exclusive to the concurre

nt legislative list.

The Congress said the protest would be held in the 36 states Houses of Assembly in reaction to the plans by the House of Representatives to alter the present wage structure, which gave the Federal Government the power to negotiate minimum wage for workers in the country.Rising from an emergency National Executive Council meeting in Abuja on Tuesday, the NLC President, Ayuba Wabba, vowed that the Congress would resist “any attempt to exterminate Nigeria’s working class.

The House of Representatives had last week debated a bill to remove the powers to negotiate wage matters from the exclusive to the concurrent list, citing the inability of state governors to pay the N30,000 minimum wage for the move. But reacting to the development, Wabba stated that the workers would not watch “hard-fought rights which are global standards bastardised by opportunistic and narrow- thinking politicians.”

I lost confidence on Labour.

The selfish handlers of the Nigerian State have finally decided to yank-off the last of lifelines Labour had for solace. Labour will be ridiculed beyond reason, in turn, service will become worse. Yet, these handlers have clung onto their own sacrosanct armed-robber benefits. 😭
