President Tinubu signs new Minimum Wage Bill into law

President Bola Tinubu has signed the new Minimum Wage Bill into law.

This move marks the end of ongoing deliberations between government authorities and labour unions.

The president signed the bill at the State House in Abuja on Monday, days after it was passed by the National Assembly.

A National Assembly delegation led by the President of the Senate Godswill Akpabio and some members of the House of Representatives were around to witness the ground-breaking event.

Neptune Prime reports that President Tinubu approved N70,000 minimum wage for Nigerian workers last week.
