President Bola Tinubu approved N70,000 minimum wage for Nigerian workers with promise to review the national minimum wage law every three years.“President Tinubu also promised to find ways to assist the private sector and the sub-nationals to pay the minimum wage. President Tinubu announced the decisions at the meeting held with leaders of TUC and NLC on Thursday in Abuja, the second time the parties met in 7 days.“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu also promised to use his discretionary powers meet the demands of university unions demanding unpaid 4 months salaries. President Bola Tinubu has promised to give 36 CNG powered buses with a sitting capacity of 100 each to the TUC and NLC.”

The delivery of these buses marks a notable step in the administration's efforts to support and enhance the transportation infrastructure for labour and student communities in Nigeria.

The initiative is expected to provide a more sustainable and efficient means of transportation, aligning with the government's broader environmental and economic goals.
