1-Its unjust for a govt to contemplate reducing workers pay of ₦18,000. What can that amount buy in today’s Nigeria? #Dontreduceminimumwage
2-A worker with a family earns less than a member of the NYSC who earns ₦19,800. Reducing his pay is unconscionable! #Dontreduceminimumwage
3-A man earning ₦18k struggles to pay rent, feed family & pay school fees. To reduce his pay is to punish his family #Dontreduceminimumwage
4-At Silverbird all our 1000 staff/family earn above minimum wage because I cant afford not to pay my staff well #Dontreduceminimumwage
5-Why cant I afford not to pay my staff well? Because if I don’t pay them well, I am giving them a license to steal #Dontreduceminimumwage
6-If FG & state govts dont pay workers well they invite workers to steal. To end corruption we must pay workers well #Dontreduceminimumwage
7-Anybody thinking of reducing the ₦18,000 minimum wage should himself first try and live on ₦18,000 for a month #Dontreduceminimumwage
8-You cannot be spending more than ₦18,000 per meal and claim that the man who earns ₦18,000 per month is over paid #Dontreduceminimumwage
9-In the last 4 years the cost of food & fuel has gone up. Can we in good faith make a case for reducing workers pay? #Dontreduceminimumwage.
10-I know for a fact that even dogs at Govt House cost more than ₦18k to maintain in a month. How much more a human #Dontreduceminimumwage
