NLC: No N105,000 proposal, says Presidency - Enyinnavictorblog
The Presidency debunked claims that the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr Wale Edun, submitted a N105,000 new minimum wage proposal to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The President met yesterday with Edun after an audience with an International Finance Corporation (IFC) team at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
It was gathered that Edun submitted the proposal for a new wage for the least-paid Nigerian worker to the President.
However, reports published by some online media platforms claimed that the minister proposed N105,000.
Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, described the N105,000 proposal as false.
“The Honorable Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun, has not proposed N105,000 minimum wage.
“The contrary story being disseminated is false”, Onanuga wrote on his verified X (formerly Twitter) handle.
