Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State has begun implementing the national minimum wage, refuting claims by the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) that the state is in default.
In a statement released on Sunday by the Chief Press Secretary, Malam Ibraheem Musa, the government clarified that the lowest-paid worker in Kaduna now earns a gross salary of ₦72,000, which was disbursed in November.
