Senator Daniel Bwala, a former politician, claims that Nigerian governors lack authority to argue that the N60,000 minimum salary is unsustainable.

Even yet, the former congressman argued that Nigerians ought to be more aware of the sources of their issues.

Bwala rejected the governors’ argument that if the minimum salary was set at N60,000, there wouldn’t be any money left over for development because, in the first place, they haven’t shown any progress.

The announcement followed the 36 state governors’ rejection of the federal government’s initial N60,000 minimum wage proposal.

They claimed that the N60,000 salary is unworkable and unsustainable, and that if it were to be implemented, some governments would be forced to take out loans in order to pay their employees’ salaries.

But Bwala asserted on Saturday in a post on his X Twitter that Nigerians ought to be more aware of the sources of their issues.

“When we are talking about upgrading to a reasonable living wage, there is no justification for Nigerian governors to say the 60,000 minimum wage is not sustainable,” he declared. Nigerians ought to be more aware of the sources of their issues.

When governors claim that there won’t be any money left for development if they pay sixty thousand dollars, it begs the question, WHAT development have they been working on anyway?

“Very few governors have improved their states or the living standards of their residents after the enhanced FAAC allocation.
