Tinubu asks national assembly to pass N70k minimum wage bill

Jul 23, 2024

President Bola Tinubu in letters dispatched to the national assembly leadership has asked the national assembly to pass the minimum wage bill into law.

The letters were read by Tajudeen Abbas, speaker of the house; and Senate President Godswill Akpabio, during plenary on Tuesday, July 23.


The bill aims to legalize the N70,000 minimum wage recently agreed between the federal government and organised labour.


Last week, Tinubu asked the national assembly to increase the 2024 appropriation Act by N6.2 trillion.


The president said N3.2 trillion is for infrastructure projects and N3 trillion for recurrent expenditure.
