Minister of Information appeals to Labour to call off strike

The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, appealed to Organised Labour to call off the ongoing strike and return to the negotiation table in the best interest of the country.

Idris, made this appeal on behalf of the Federal government, accompanied by the Minister of State for Labour, Hon Nkeiruka Onyejeocha and the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Mr. Bayo Onanuga, at a press briefing in Abuja on Monday. 

The Minister reiterated government’s position that Labour’s current proposal of N494,000, which translates into an annual wage bill of 9.5 Trillion Naira for the Federal Government of Nigeria alone, is unrealistic and capable of crippling the Nigerian economy, lead to job losses, and a crash of businesses.

The Minister said the desire of President Tinubu to improve the living conditions of Nigerians goes beyond increase in minimum wage as several policies have been enacted to put more money into the pockets of Nigerians.
