Organised Labour represented by the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, and the Trade Union Congress, TUC, have had several disagreements with the federal government over the amount that needed to be approved as the new minimum wage.
However, the parties reached an agreement days ago that the new minimum wage amount should be N70,000 which the President has approved to take effect.
