Nlc gives fg 11 days ultimatum on new minimum wage
It seems like you're referring to a recent news article or development. Here's a summary:
The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has given the Federal Government (FG) an 11-day ultimatum to implement the new minimum wage of N30,000 per month for workers. The ultimatum expires on October 26, 2022.
The NLC made this announcement after a meeting with the Tripartite Committee on the Review of the National Minimum Wage, which was set up by the government to negotiate a new minimum wage. The committee had recommended a new minimum wage of N30,000 per month, but the FG has yet to implement it.
The NLC has threatened to embark on a nationwide strike if the FG fails to implement the new minimum wage within the given timeframe. The union is demanding that the FG should ensure that the new minimum wage is implemented across all sectors, including the private sector, and that it should be indexed to the cost of living.
This development is significant because it highlights the ongoing struggle for better working conditions and higher wages for Nigerian workers. The NLC has been pushing for a new minimum wage for several years, and this ultimatum is a clear indication of the union's determination to ensure that workers' rights are protected.
It will be interesting to see how the FG responds to this ultimatum and whether the NLC will indeed go on strike if the deadline is not met.
