Sen. Sunday Karimi Commends Gov. Ododo for Signing the Minimum Wage into Law; Congratulates Kogi State Workers

 

The Senator representing Kogi West Senatorial District, Sunday Karimi has commended the Governor of Kogi State, HE. Usman Ahmed Ododo for signing the new minimum wage of Seventy Two Thousand, Five Hundred Naira (N72,500) and believes that the development is a good step in the right direction for the state and the nation’s workforce.

The Senator described workers both in the public and private sectors as the lifeblood of the country economy, stressing that the previous minimum wage of Thirty Thousand Naira (#30,000) was reviewed to boost the workers productivity and morale. He further congratulated the workers in the state on the signing of the new minimum wage into law.

In his words, “I want to congratulate Kogi State workers on the approval and assent of the N72,500 as the official minimum wage in the state. This reviewed wage, which is aimed at increasing the productivity and morale of the workers across the State is a good step in the right direction both for our state and nation’s workforce, who are the lifeblood of our economy.

“This is very important since the withdrawal of petrol subsidy, which has afforded the government more funds and there’s no better way to effectively and productively spend it than to increase the minimum wage of Nigerian workers to a reasonable point where the average worker can adequately take care of their families” he concluded.
