NLC Demands Review, Tells FG ₦70,000 Minimum Wage No Longer Okay

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has called for a review of the ₦70,000 national minimum wage, insisting that the current figure can no longer meet the needs of workers in the prevailing economy.

The call was made by the Acting General Secretary of the NLC, Benson Upah, during a chat with newsmen in Abuja on Sunday.

He argued that most workers are unable to meet their basic needs based on the ₦70,000 minimum wage as a result of galloping inflation, rising costs of food, transportation, housing, and other essential services.

The NLC official added that the Labour Union is already negotiating with the government to review the minimum wage and would not hesitate to embark on a strike if negotiations fail.

Falana Backs NUPENG, Tells FG To Call Dangote To Order

Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, SAN, has urged the Federal Government to step in and address Dangote Refinery owner Aliko Dangote’s alleged plan to compel newly hired drivers to sign contracts that bar them from joining established unions within the oil and gas sector.

On Friday, NUPENG announced that its members would cease work and begin seeking alternative employment starting September 8.

The union stated that this action is a direct response to Dangote Refinery’s alleged efforts to bar its compressed natural gas (CNG) tanker drivers from affiliating with labor unions.

Reacting to the development in a statement issued on Sunday, Falana asserted that the Dangote Group’s policy violates Section 40 of the Nigerian Constitution, Section 12 of the Trade Union Act, and Article 10 of the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights (Ratification and Enforcement) Act.

I Won’t Delete That Tweet – Sowore Dares Tinubu Govt Over 𝕏 Post

Human rights activist and former presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore, has vowed never to delete a social media post that drew the ire of the Department of State Services (DSS).

In a statement on Sunday, Sowore said the DSS had written to 𝕏 (formerly Twitter), demanding the deactivation of his account within 24 hours.

The activist claimed the security agency’s move followed a protest staged at the Federal High Court and the Ministry of Justice by alleged pro-government demonstrators who called for his arrest.

According to him, the action was unconstitutional and amounted to “a desecration of national dignity.”

He accused the DSS of attempting to “export national disgrace to the US” by pressuring social media companies to silence dissenting voices.

Sowore also alleged that both the DSS and the police had subjected him to persistent harassment.

‘Submit To Your Husband’s Will’ – Otedola’s Marriage Advice To Temi

Billionaire businessman, Femi Otedola, has urged his daughter, Temi, to submit to her newlywed husband, singer Oluwatosin Ajibade, popularly known as Mr Eazi, during their wedding reception in Iceland.

Temi and Mr Eazi tied the knot in a private ceremony in Iceland in August 2025, after earlier hosting two other weddings, one in Monaco on May 9, which coincided with the birthday of Mr Eazi’s late mother, and a Yoruba traditional ceremony at the Otedola family residence in Dubai in July.

In a video from the Iceland reception that has circulated online, Otedola praised the couple’s love and entrepreneurial spirit, describing their union as “made in heaven.”

“You found a great guy, a very great guy, a blessed guy. He’s come from a very decent family. One thing I’ll advise you… You have to succumb to the whims and caprices of your husband. Okay? He’s your husband, he’s your boss. There’s no more dad, don’t call me up,” he said.

Otedola also commended their shared drive as entrepreneurs. “One thing I like about both of you and I’ve observed is, you’re truly in love with each other. Temi is an entrepreneur. Tosin is an entrepreneur. So you match each other. This is made in heaven,” he said.

He further advised the couple to manage disagreements privately. “When you have issues, problems, just keep it within yourself. Never call any friend that have this problem. Just keep it within your walls. And God will bless you and bless your marriage.”
