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.

OP you just reminded of something I have forgotten that do exist, do we syol have anything like NLC in Nigeria, I don't think there is anything like that, as far as imycon concerned that body lost it's relevance since Adams oshiomole left, he was the only man that troubled obasanjo to the extent that baba tire for am, wetin we get now na politicians no be people wey fit challenge the government with their anti peoples policies, if na before they president fit pronounce the removal of subsidy it stand, e no fit happen, the strike eh for long and the government must succum, the reason why NLC no fit get mind continue the strike when the been the ask for the minimum wage, na because them no get the mind sake of say them do give dem the national cake.

I really don't under your topic, are you with the government or NLC. I have not heard this news, but I think if NLC is requesting 1 million naira for minimum wage is not a bad thing. Firstly things are too expensive that the present minimum wage is like nothing compared to the economy in the country.  Nigeria government are also used to negotiating things like this, so it's good to go high, since we all know that they will end up negotiating it. My only issue is that the NLC is no longer an active body and the government really don't take them serious. I really wish they could stand their ground and at least get a better minimum wage for the people.

Op 1m isn't enough they deserve better, in this our economy 1000k can't even feed a family in a month, even jf the government can't achieve the 1m let them increase it to 200k or more. Or let them improve in the economy for work to be able to make use for their poor payments.

You can't say they are not serious because they Demand for huge minimum wage, do you know how much the failed politicians are taking home every month, so the workers should be taken seriously by taking care of their welfare.

Who can be with the government of Nigeria with the nonsense that they are doing, but I noticed that NLC are overdoing. I remember when minimum wage was 30000 naira, they wanted it to rise above 500000 naira from 30000 naira. It is better they have good economists instead of what they are doing like they did not go to school.

What the NLC are demanding from the government is in the best of all Nigeria workers but the government won't implement it,they will complaints they don't the capacity to pay such of amount of money but if the NLC can succeed in pressuring them to pay,I will be happy. The government have the capacity to pay everyone in this country N1 million Naira each monthly and it would affect the economy. If Senators are earning millions of Naira for doing nothing, nigeria workers also deserve to be paid N1 million naira minimum wage.
