“We want our members to be very calm and await the release of the table and also the consequential increases, ” he said.
He however said although the battle has been won it is not yet over, noting that the Federal Government does not have issue in terms of implementation.
“I want to assure you that the states and local governments will have issues on the implementation. That is why I said the battle has started.
“We will begin to hear from states government on how they will announce the implementation and which of the states that will have one obstacle or the other, and we plan how to confront those governments.
” The Nigerian workers also expect that by May they should start enjoying the new wage and I am sure the implementation has started from today and we also start counting the areas from today , ”he added.
He said that as the Workers Day approaches, workers were also expecting the Federal Government to do the needful as it concerns workers’ welfare.
Also Mr Uche Ekwe, Head of International, Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) commended the President for signing the National Minimum Wage Bill.
