President Bola Tinubu has declared that he can only approve a new minimum wage that will be convenient for the government to pay.
The President stated this at a dinner to mark Nigeria’s 25 years of Democracy in Abuja on Wednesday night, June 12.
The President appreciated those who stood by him over the years and promised Nigerians that he wouldn’t depart from the tenets of democratic governance.
“I have to celebrate with you my dear brother, Senate President, Deputy Senate President. The minimum wage is going to be what Nigerians can afford, what you can afford and what I can afford. Cut your coat according to your size, if you have size at all,” he said
The President also promised to bring down the prices of food by tackling the menace of banditry that has forced many farmers away from their farms.
