Members of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Wednesdayb gathered at the Unity Fountain, Abuja where they will move to the National Assembly to protest against plans to amend the national minimum wage act.
NLC President, Ayuba Wabba led the protest.
Some of the protesters displayed placards with inscriptions such as: “On National Minimum Wage We Stand” , No To Minimum Wage on Concurrent List, “Yes To Minimum Wage on Exclusive List”.
Before proceeding to the National Assembly, Wabba said minimum wage issues should not be treated with kid gloves, adding that workers who generate the wealth of the nation, should receive a fair minimum wage.
The protest is connected with a fresh plot by the National Assembly to review the new national minimum wage, removing it from the Exclusive list to the Concurrent Iist.
