Oyo state chapter of the Nigerian Labour Congress will meet on Tuesday over the negotiation and implementation of the new minimum wage by the state government.
The meeting will be on the content of a letter to demand the implementation of the new minimum wage.
The NLC Chairman in Oyo State, Bayo Titilola-Sodo, told The PUNCH that the labour union in the state would meet today.
“Although discussion has not started yet, government is auditing the state workforce and this affords us the opportunity to know the amount that is being spent on salaries every month. We shall consider everything,” Titilola-Sodo said.
On the failure to raise panel ahead of December 31, 2019 deadline for the minimum wage negotiation, the Chief Press Secretary to Governor Seyi Makinde, Taiwo Adisa, confirmed that a meeting between the labour union in the state and the state government would be held soon.
