The Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF) has assured the Nigeria Labour Congress, Trade Union Congress, and the workers of an improved and sustainable minimum wage.

The NGF, in a communique signed by its Chairman and Kwara State Governor, ABDULRAHMAN ABDULRAZAQ, stated that the 37-member tripartite committee tasked with reviewing the National Minimum Wage is still in consultations and has not completed its work.

The governors’ forum stated that it is assessing each state government’s fiscal capacity and the potential effects of different proposals to determine an enhanced minimum wage that can be feasibly sustained by the states.
