For instance, the Secretary General of the National Union of Textile Garment and Tailoring Workers of Nigeria (NUTGTWN), Comrade Issa Aremu, raised the issue of non-payment of workers’ salaries by many states across Nigeria in December 2014. He tagged the situation as a wage robbery and theft and an economic crime. According to the information by NLC VP, for about three months now, 22 state governors are delaying or refusing to pay salaries.

That is why the first thing that future president of Nigeria should take into consideration is paying fair salaries in time.
