GOVERNMENT SET TO IMPLEMENT MINIMUM WAGE

-

The Federal Government has assured that
it would soon come out with a definite figure that will be payable by both the governments and the private sector. But the government said the figure may not be above N25,000, explaining that the benchmark was being considered in order not to cause unemployment as pegging minimum wage beyond the figure may result in many workers in the private sector losing their jobs.

Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Chris Ngige, who dropped the hint at a news conference in Abuja, yesterday, also flayed the labour union for its latest ultimatum to the Federal Government. He also noted that the National Minimum Wage Committee set up by the Federal Government was still working within its timelines. The minister said the latest ultimatum handed the government by the leadership of the NLC was a blackmail. Ngige said he and chairman of the committee on the new minimum wage and former Head of Service of the Federation, Ms Amma Pepple, will brief President Muhammadu Buhari today on the progress so far made by the committee.

  Just in, a Video of Pere before he ever dreamt of joining the Big Brother house was found online where he was asked in an interview where he was asked what character he will love to play in a movie, super hero or villain and Pere out rightly chose to play the Villain. Your guess is as good as mine! A Villain is someone who opposes a hero, he is a criminal and one blamed for a particular evil or difficulty, another word for a Villain is a traitor, a creep, wrongdoer. Do all the above descriptions match Pere's Personality? In another content being circulated online by a Twitter user @wizzywizzo alleged that Pere was married to one Heloma Pamela who is a USA citizen and about a few months she became pregnant with his baby.
