NANS implores FG to accede to the NLC's minimum wage demand.


The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) have called for an increase in the national minimum wage. The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has urged the Federal Government (FG) to grant the NLC's demand for a minimum wage in a timely manner, while also giving consideration to the legitimate demands of Nigerian workers.


The average Nigerian worker's purchasing power has been considerably reduced by the current economic reality, according to a statement signed by NANS President Pedro Obi.

Many families are finding it more and more difficult to meet their basic necessities as a result of inflation, growing living expenses, and the ongoing depreciation of the naira. It's The demands of organized labor for a livable wage become not only legitimate but also necessary in this setting.

The welfare of our parents and guardians, who are primarily employed as civil servants or laborers, has a direct impact on the youth and student population in Nigeria.

"More families in Nigeria would have better living conditions as a result of an increased minimum wage, creating a more favorable atmosphere for students to concentrate on their studies and personal growth."

As a result, we urge the Federal Government to hold substantive and productive talks with the Labor Union in order to come to a mutually advantageous agreement on the minimum wage.

"Put workers' welfare first: Acknowledge the vital role Nigerian laborers play in the growth of our country and Put their welfare first while deciding on policies.
