The Organised Labour, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) on Friday walked out of the government team at the Tripartite Committee meeting on new national minimum wage.
They left the meeting over the inability of the government to make new offer beyond N60,000.
A source at the meeting said that negotiations hit the brick wall when the government and the organized private sector remained adamant on the N60,000 offer.
Recall, that On Tuesday, talks between the Federal Government and Organised Labour had broken down after the government and Organised Private Sector (OPS) raised their offers to N60,000.
The Labour union had described the proposal as “insulting” while walking away from the meeting.
Again, Labour-FG meeting over minimum wage ends in deadlock
