Baring last minute changes, President Bola Tinubu will announce a new minimum wage for Nigerian workers next week.

VerseNews reports that the president of the Trade Union Congress (TUC), Comrade Festus Osifo, disclosed this while speaking on the outcome of the union’s Tuesday meeting with the federal government on the fuel subsidy removal.

“Minister of labour told us that he had an audience with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the minister of finance and had reviewed the issue of wage award. But the president asked them to fine-tune the issues before he makes the announcement,”

“Minister told us all these issues would be streamlined but because the president has travelled we should give him an extra two weeks.

“We said no; we don’t have an extra two weeks to give. After more discussions, he said the president would make proper announcement next week.”
