President BOLA TINUBU and Vice President KASHIM SHETTIMA met with governors of the 36 states of the Federation and ministers to deliberate on a new minimum wage for workers in the country, as well as other economic matters.

The President and the governors met at the 141st meeting of the National Economic Council, which took place in the Council Chamber of the State House in Abuja, the nation’s capital.

The Vice President chaired the meeting with state governors, deputy governors and ministers before the arrival of the President.

 Thursday's meeting came about two days after the Federal Executive Council stepped down a minimum wage review memo to allow for more consultations.
