Labour Party Eyes N80,000-N100,000 Minimum Wage

The Labour Party says it would implement a minimum wage of N80,000-N100,000 if the party wins next year’s presidential election. <br />The party’s Deputy National Chairman Ayo Olorunfemi said the LP is looking at implementing a new minimum wage of between N80,000-N100,000 as against the N30,000 obtainable presently. <br />He says the present N30,000 minimum wage does not reflect the realities, adding that the Labour Party would pluck holes and exploit new ways to ensure the new wage structure is implemented if the party wins next year’s polls.
