Primate Elijah Ayodele of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, has asked President Bola Tinubu to increase workers’ minimum wage to N100,000.

Ayodele made this call in a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin on Thursday.

The cleric said an increase in the minimum wage would cushion the effect of subsidy removal instead of the proposed N8,000 palliatives to 12 million households.

Primate Ayodele said the N8,000 palliatives will only lead to corruption and will not reach out to the poor masses that need it.

He said the palliatives will not have any serious impact on the people because of corruption among politicians.

According to Ayodele, the N8,000 palliative will be a total waste of time because it won’t work due to corrupt practices that will mar the process.

He said the minimum wage should be increased to N100,000 if, indeed, the government has the people at heart.

Ayodele noted that an increase in minimum wage will have a direct impact on the people.

He stated, “If truly the government is concerned about the masses, the minimum wage should be increased to N100,000.

“It will go a long way in cushioning the effects of subsidy removal and inflation. Minimum wage increase will have a direct impact on the people than N8,000 palliative.

“The N8,000 palliative is corruption, I see nothing in the palliative, and it will not reach out to the poor masses. Despite the fact that Mr President has signed it, it will not make any impact. The governors will use it for their selfish needs. The poor will not enjoy it at all.

“It will not be a blessing to the majority; the palliative is just a waste of time and energy, it cannot work for its purpose.”

Who initiated the borrowing?

People who say things like this have a warped knowledge of economics. You can't just be jacking up wages and yes I agree that politicians wages and earnings too should be cut down.

For the numerous idiots quoting me and saying nonsense, before you quote me make sure you have read and understand very well what I am trying to say. If you quote me and make presuppositions I did not make, iku pa e.

Prez Buhari’s 8k project must be aborted. I’m pretty sure this 8k disbursement would be aborted

This man should be arrested ASAP. Is he a man of God or a politician? How come he's a critic of all the governments that have ruled Nigeria from aso rock.

The current fool parading himself as President of Nigeria has no f**king sense.

100k is too much sef. 75%~100% increase is manageable.

Everyone with there own opinion.

Tinubu only interest is ruling Nigeria and that name president.

He careless about the welfare of the people.

Did he win? Just that the country hated the other tribe

What about those who are not civil servants or those who are unemployed? Will the increase in minimum wage cater for them?


What about the attendant Inflation an increase from 30k minimum wage to 100k will cause?

Increasing minimum wage will benefit everyone. Traders have already increased the price of commodities but sales have dropped seriously because people don't have money to buy. Artisans and other service providers are complaining because of low patronage. Once salary is reviewed upwards, there'll be more patronage for service providers, traders and commercial motorists will make more money. That way, they benefit from the salary increase even though they are not salary earners. As for the unemployed, friends and family will ha6 more money to help them while they look for job. 8k is nothing
