The Kebbi state chapter of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, on Wednesday kicked against the approved N30,000 minimum wage by the State Government.
The state’s Chairman of the union, Umar Halidu, made this known while briefing journalists in Birnin- Kebbi.
Halidu said the rejection of the minimum wage is based on the outcome the union meeting with its members in the 21 Local Government Areas of the state.
Halidu said the organised labour was not party to the decision, describing it as violation of the principle of collective bargaining.
The chairman also called on workers to remain calm and law abiding.
It would be recalled that the state government said it would pay N30,000 minimum wage to workers with effect from September 2019.
