The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC has stated that workers in Nigeria deserve an increased minimum wage.
This statement was contained in a post that was shared on the official X handle of the Nigeria Labour Congress on Monday.
This is coming after the labour union began its indefinite strike.
It would be recalled that before NLC embarked on the strike, a meeting was held with some members of the National Assembly and the Federal Government. The meeting, however, did not yield a positive result.
NLC has now stated that workers deserve a living wage. The union said that more money in the hands of workers would boost the economy because it will go directly into the market but money in the hands of politicians are buried in the soak away pits.
The statement reads;
