NNPP chieftain urges Tinubu to approve N200,000 as minimum wage for Nigerian workers

The governorship candidate of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) in the last general elections in Ogun State, Ambassador Olufemi Ajadi Oguntoyinbo, has called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to accede to the N200,000 minimum wage for workers across the country.

Oguntoyinbo noted that this is necessary given the present economic reality occasioned by the increment in the prices of goods and services across the country.

He made these disclosures via a statement made available to newsmen on Saturday.

It would be recalled that the labour unions had proposed N200,000 as the minimum wage before the President.

Oguntoyinbo, however, appealed to Tinubu to accede to the request.
