Veteran journalist Mukhtar Wakeel from Nasarawa State has stirred discussion with his perspective on the newly approved N70,500 minimum wage in Nigeria.
In a statement, Wakeel opined that families can manage this wage effectively if the man in the household avoids spending money on side relationships or frivolous expenses.
His comments align with ongoing debates about financial discipline, family responsibilities, and the sufficiency of the new minimum wage in addressing the cost of living in Nigeria.
This viewpoint has sparked varied reactions, with some supporting the call for financial prudence, while others argue that the minimum wage remains insufficient to cover basic needs, regardless of spending habits.
