The Federal Government says that although the Tripartite Committee on National Minimum Wage has yet to conclude its negotiations, workers will not lose anything as the new minimum wage will take effect on May 1, 2024.
The Minister of State Labour, Nkeiruka Onyejeocha, stated this on Wednesday while addressing Nigerian workers at the May Day celebration in Abuja.
She said it is regrettable that the new national minimum wage is not ready before today but that wide consultation is ongoing to ensure that the document is out together as soon as possible.
