The organised labour have alerted Nigerians that plans were underway to embark on industrial action if the current state of affairs as regards the issue of consequential adjustment arising from the new national Minimum wage of N30,000 per month remains the same. The TUS recalled that after the Ama Pepple committee recommended N30,000 monthly new National Minimum Wage, the Government Side went to the press to announce that the negotiation was inconclusive. It thereafter sent N27,000 and N30,000 monthly National Minimum Wage proposal to the National Council of State and the National Assembly. “The latter approved N30,000 as the new monthly National Minimum Wage before President Buhari signed it into law on April 18. At the same time TUS is preparing for appropriate Trade Union measures to be deployed to get justice for public service employees.
