Nigerian human rights lawyer, Femi Falana (SAN), on Tuesday, reignited the debate surrounding the minimum wage by asserting that all states have the financial capacity to pay the increase agreed-upon.
He made this claim during an interview on Channels Television’s The Morning Brief, adding that the government cannot stop labour from embarking on industrial actions.
He also asserted that his law firm in conjunction with the labour unions will take legal actions against any state government, or employer of Labour who fails to pay the national minimum wage after it has been agreed upon.
