The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has proposed a wage award to President Bola Tinubu’s government to alleviate the impact of petrol subsidy removal on the average Nigerian.
NLC President Joe Ajaero made the announcement during the International Labour Conference in Geneva, Switzerland.
Ajaero explained that the proposal was part of the agreement reached with the Tinubu government during negotiations on the removal of fuel subsidy.
He emphasised that the agreement was not for a minimum wage but for a wage award that could be implemented immediately.
Ajaero also stated that the minimum wage review would still take place early next year.
The NLC wants the subsidy regime investigated, as it is unclear who is receiving the subsidy and who is importing and exporting.
The meeting also discussed the issue of modular refineries, which could bring down the cost of diesel.
