Minimum Wage Reality Check

In this episode of Veegilant, we will be discussing the current nationwide strike by the National Labour Congress, demanding a increase in the minimum wage from 30,000 naira to 400,000 naira. The federal government has met them in what looks like halfway by agreeing to 60,000 naira. But we will examine the economic realities that prompted NLC's demands. The huge gap line between the average worker's earnings and the salaries of Nigerian senators, we will also discuss the wage disparity.
