I Won't Renege On Paying N18k Minimum Wage - Amosun.

Ogun State Governor Ibikunle Amosun says he
will not renege on his promise to pay the N18, 000
minimum wage despite calls by some other state
governors to have the minimum wage reduced due to
the reduced Federal allocation.

Governor Amosun stated this during the presentation
of the 2016 Appropriation bill to the members of
the State House of Assembly in Abeokuta on
November 24th.

He said his administration which had been consistent
in paying its workers in spite of dwindling revenue
from the Federation Account was committed to
increasing the minimum wage if the economy improves.

Amosun added that Ogun State remained the only
State that pays marginally above minimum wage,
assuring that government’s attention would be
shifted to rural roads to complement the ongoing
urban infrastructural projects in the next fiscal year.
