In response to the withdrawal of Labour from the negotiations by the Tripartite Committee on National Minimum Wage (NMW), the Leadership of the National Assembly intervened on June 2, 2024. This led to the Organised Labour declaring a nationwide strike on Monday, June 3, 2024, to press their demands.
In the interest of the nation, the Federal Government convened a crucial meeting with Labour representatives in the office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation on Monday, June 3. The aim was to find a resolution to end the strike action.
After extensive deliberations and engagement, the following resolutions were reached:
The President, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Federal Republic of Nigeria, is committed to establishing a National Minimum Wage higher than N60,000.
The Tripartite Committee will meet daily for the next week to arrive at an agreeable National Minimum Wage.
In respect to the President's commitment, the Organised Labour will convene a meeting of its organs immediately to consider this commitment.
No worker will face victimization as a result of participating in the industrial action.
