NLC Protest Against Minimum Wage In Ogun Assembly

The Secretariat of the Nigeria Labour Congress(NLC), Ogun State chapter, have trooped in their numbers on Wednesday morning to the State House of Assembly, Oke – Mosan.

The workers, led by Emmanuel Bankole, gathered themselves to the Assembly to demand that the National Minimum wage is their right and should not be decentralised.

Bankole said the National Minimum wage protects unorganised workers, unskilled and the vulnerable, urging President Muhammadu Buhari and the National Assembly to leave it on the Exclusive List.

According to him, pulling the minimum wage out of the exclusive legislative list is a declaration of war on Nigerian workers.

He said Nigerian workers will resist it.
