NLC Demands ₦150,000 Minimum Wage For Lagos Workers
The Lagos State chapter of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has called for a new minimum wage of ₦150,000, citing the high cost of living in the state.
Chairperson Funmi Sesi said Lagos workers, who currently earn ₦85,000, deserve higher pay in line with increases recently implemented in Imo and Ebonyi states.
She argued that the state’s high cost of accommodation, transport, feeding, and utilities makes the demand necessary, expressing optimism that other states would follow suit.
Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo recently raised the minimum wage for state workers to ₦104,000, while Ebonyi increased its own to ₦90,000.
