The Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF) has pushed for a new national Minimum wage of ₦100,000.
The position of the Governors was made known on Friday by the NGF Chairman and Governor of Kwara State, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq.
He said the Governors endorsed the proposed figure as they recognized the need to improve workers’ welfare amid rising living costs..
According to him, the state governments are actively engaging with the federal government and labour unions to reach a sustainable agreement.
The call is expected to shape ongoing negotiations on wages, inflation and broader economic measures.
AbdulRahman added that the Governors also endorsed the economic reforms of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
