The Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities(SSANU) and the Nigeria Labour Congress(NCL) have proposed to the federal government that the minimum wage be N52,200. Many unions have asked the federal government to implement the minimum wage immediately, stating that this is the time that Nigerians need it the most. This past weekend, the SSANU and the NLC made their position on the matter known at the Executive Council meeting at Benue State University, in Makurdi.
This article discusses how interest groups and unions affect government policy in Nigeria. These groups are making a strong push in raising the minimum wage for the country, and the federal government may be forced to settle on the new minimum wage ammount.
