Ekweremadu stated this in his
goodwill message to workers today to mark the 2017 May day celebration in the
Country.
He said the current N18,000 minimum
wage was no longer realistic, given the hyperinflation in the country, which he
said had made it difficult for overwhelming majority of Nigerian workers to
afford the basic needs of life.
Ekweremadu added that, the nation
could afford N50,000 minimum wage through proper management of the economy and
prudent expenditure by all levels of government.
He further wished the workers a
happy May Day Celebration.
