Following the delay in the commencement of negotiations on the consequential adjustment of the minimum wage at the state levels nationwide, organized labor will meet with state chapters of the Joint Public Service Negotiating Councils (JPSNC) latest by next week, to discuss the next line of action. JPSNC had met with its state chapters in Abuja where they urged governors of the 36 states of the federation to immediately commence the payment of N30,000 new minimum wage with effect from April 18. The Chairman of JPSNC, Simon Anchaver, who had addressed journalists at the end of the consultative meeting, said the union resolved that all states should immediately commence the payment of N30,000 to all the affected workers while the grey areas of the consequential adjustment were being sorted out. He added that the national headquarters of the JPSNC would be sending officers to supervise the negotiations at the state level. But the General Secretary of the Trade Union Congress (TUC), Musa Lawal, told reporters that none of the states had started the negotiations as at last week. He, however, said labor would wait till next week before summoning its state branches to decide on what to do to compel states to commence negotiations.
