which agreement here, until Fg yield to the Labour unions demands, strike continues. The clueless #60k the Fg is proposing here is never justifiable. Even a bag of garri is over 60k. Tinubu and his team should do the needful on the new minimum wage. Things will escalate more if they don’t act on the plight of Nigeria workers.

Nothing was reached here.

Just that the FG is playing smart by running to TVC News owned by Escobar first even before the organized labour.😂

Abii FG wants to call off the strike for NLC?

You guys have no idea how damaged the Nigerian people are.

If Tinubu pegs minimum wage at 40k and dollar exchanges for 10k per dollar and bag of garri sells for 400k per bag….:: nothing will happen.

The docility of Nigerians powered by entrenched tribalism, nepotism and distrust can guarantee that Nigerians will never fight for a common cause. Tinubu just needs to settle Ajero and Osifo …. The rest will be history

And Nigerias political class understands this wella. Nigerians can only complain even to the point of death.

agreement they signed here is to call off the strike and also Fg promises to Jack the amount of its proposed minimum wage up to over #60k. Now negotiation will be daily till the final conclusion will be done.

Higher than 60k can mean anything, like FG can be adding 2k on top everyday... Why don't they just give a satisfactory amount and call it a day.

This shows that the government can never be serious until they are held by the jugular. One day shutdown of the country and they realize this matter is serious.

Before now, come for meeting, No.
