BEVERLY HILLS, January 24, (THEWIL) – President Muhammadu Buhari has transmitted the National Minimum Wage Bill to the National Assembly after its approval by the National Council of State.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on National Assembly Affairs, Senator Ita Enang, confirmed on Wednesday that the bill was transmitted to the parliament earlier in the day.
Enang, however, did not give details of the content of the bill.
THEWILL recalls that the National Council of State had approved the sum of N27,000, which the Federal Government, however, said it would increase to N30,000 for its workers.
However, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) rejected the N27,000 new National Minimum Wage adopted by the National Council of State on Tuesday.
