Minimum Wage: Comrade Isaa Aremu Assures Workers Of A Peaceful Negotiation<\/div>\n
Zainab Tanimu<\/div>\n
Kaduna, North-West, Nigeria<\/div>\n
Nigerian workers have been assured of a peaceful negotiation with regards to the minimum wage implementation as a fruitful result is exppected from the ongoing negotiations between the organised labour and federal government.<\/div>\n
According to labour, the ongoing process is not renegotiation but implementation.<\/div>\n
\n
This was contained in a statement signed by the NLC NEC member and labour member of the National Wages and Salary Commission, Comrade Isaa Aremu\u00a0where he observed that \u201cthere is already a subsisting new Minimum wage of N30,000 signed into law by President Muhamadu Buhari.”<\/div>\n
The signing of the N30,000 minimum wage into law by the president the labour leader said was part of the struggles.<\/div>\n
\u201clt was an outcome of robust negotiations between organised labour, organised private sector, Federal and state governments.<\/div>\n
This is also the 5th National minimum wage Act. The first was in 1981.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
The ongoing negotiation about minimum wage implementation in the public sector is legitimate and expected and does not in any way mean there was a \u201ccrisis\u201d. He said.<\/div>\n
The statement further revealed that very soon an agreement would be reached.<\/div>\n
“The Joint Public Service Negotiating Council is working with both the NLC and TUC to achieve the goal of a just consequential adjustment.<\/div>\n
\u201cWhat is at stake is not a renegotiation but implementation. But as the saying goes, the devil is in the details.<\/div>\n
The new wage for workers is Godliness. The details are what we are working towards through dialogue with the government.<\/div>\n
I have no doubt that there would not be any crisis.<\/div>\n
There would be an agreement just the way we negotiated the past minimum wages.”<\/div>\n
Good pay is \u201csmart economics\u201d he said; because workers pay increases effective demand for goods and service in a depressed economy like Nigeria.<\/div>\n
Aremu had commended both the Kaduna and Lagos states governments for what he described as, \u201claw respecting,\u201d in implementing the new minimum wage.<\/div>\n
