Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu says an agreement has been reached with Union Leaders to pay N85,000 minimum wage.
Sanwo-Olu spoke on Wednesday during an interview with Channels Television.
“I’m glad to let you know that the minimum wage for Lagos, which we have discussed with our union, is N85,000 today,” Sanwo-Olu said.
It’s not a competition, so I’m not going to say that we’re paying more than some other people; it’s a function of affordability and a function of capacity,” the governor said.
He expressed hope that his administration would be able to increase minimum wage to N100,000 by January, 2025.
