I think the government want to increase the minimum wage to 100,000 nara but NLC said that 1 million naira is what they want. They want people say they are doing good?

When will NLC have good economists among them and start doing like a literate.

First of all, your topic needs understanding. I don't really understand your topic. Seems you made a mistake writing it.

Now your content. You are saying then asking for 1 million naira is unrealistic. When your politicians earn more than American politicians. Are you for real? So the politicians cutting down their income to serve Nigerians is seen now as inconvenience. I thought they are there to serve Nigerians interesting. Seems like you yourself are a politician. If they can't pay that, they should cut their incomes in half. Are you not seeing what's going on in the country. As insecurity is piling up, we need money for randsome as the people in charge of security are failing at their jobs and still there eating money. Please, let's be guided.

If they always negotiate the amount it could be the reason for Nigeria labor Congress to start from the amount so that by the time negation started they would arrived on a good price and agreed on that, we already no ₦1 million is something this administrative will never implement for anything but any amount they agreed let it not be an amount that's below ₦150 thousand because they should also no that a salary of ₦150 thousand can't do more than buying food in the house. The policy of this minimum wages is making people not to be interested of how they do it because is not also effective on the places they're working.

The topic is a bit confusing but if I may understand what you mean clearly, you are saying that the NLC are not serious because they are demanding a whooping amount of money which is 1million naira as minimum wage, well as for me the amount they are demanding is not outrageous and the government can afford it and I believe before they are through with negotiations the amount will be reduced, it's not actually a huge amount considering the state of economy and how the prices of food is skyrocketing everyday in the market so it's fair enough.

Honestly speaking, let the truth be told this people deserve better because that amount is not even up to one quarter of what our politicians take home monthly so the affairs of this people should be looked out for so they can live comfortably, the masses are suffering due to high prices of goods and insecurity so they should negotiate well and pay a deserving amount.

The effect of ₦1 million minimum wage will be detrimental to the Nigeria economy. You people that support it will be the one that will later be blaming the government about inflation in the country.

₦1 million minimum wage means more people will buy more expensive phones, laptops, cars, TVs, and other goods and services that are not in Nigeria, this will significantly affect naira and its purchasing power will significantly reduce, making dollar and other foreign currencies to increase if compared to naira. It is highly advisable for NLC to think in the right way. They should be demanding for better minimum wage than what can later affect Nigeria. At the end, things will still be like how Nigeria is now after they are able to handle the inflation. Those collecting the minimum wage will still remain being poor.

The issue of this country is not about the minimum wage. I am not implying that it should not be increased, but ₦1 million minimum wage is not possible. The NLC even know that.
