The Federal Government and the organised labour yesterday reached an agreement on the consequential adjustment and implementation of the new national minimum wage.

The Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo, disclosed this via his verified twitter handle late last night while both parties were still meeting.

He wrote: “After some delicate negotiations (with both ministers as conciliators), the government and the labour have finally reached an agreement on the consequential adjustment of other wages following the implementation of the enhanced minimum wage of N30, 000. we are working on the communiqué.”
