The Organised Private Sector, OPS, has reacted to the new N70,000 minimum wage adopted by the Federal Government.
Recall that President Bola Tinubu on Thursday approved
N70,000 minimum wage for Nigerian workers, with a promise to review the
national minimum wage law every three years.
Reacting, the spokesperson of OPS, and Director General of
the Nigeria Employers’ Consultative Association, NECA, Adewale-Smatt Oyerinde,
warned that members cannot pay the N70,000 national minimum wage announced by
the Federal Government without support.
He was quoted as saying: “While we commend the President for
putting to rest the immediate issue of the National Minimum Wage, we also note,
most importantly, his commitment to support the sub-nationals and the organised
private sector to pay the new wage.”
