As Nigeria grapples with soaring inflation and escalating costs of living, organised Labour, led by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), has proposed a bold N500,000 minimum wage for Nigerian workers. This development comes as zonal public hearings on the new wage structure kick off today across six geopolitical zones, including Lagos, Kano, Enugu, Akwa Ibom, Adamawa, and Abuja.
