Catholic priest, Reverend Father Ejike Mbaka, has said governors and National Assembly members should also earn the proposed N62,000 as minimum wage.

PDP chieftain, Usman Okai, has criticised Nigerian governors over their stance on the N62,000 minimum wage, noting wage increment will boost the nation's economy.

Dare Glintstone Akinniyi, PDP chieftain, has urged labour to be realistic with its demand and accept the N62,000 minimum wage offer proposed by Tinubu's government.

The North Central Citizens Council (NCCC) has faulted organised labour over what it described as "reckless agitation" for an "unreasonable" minimum wage increment.

Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, has maintained that the wage increase demands being made by organised labour are not realistic.

The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has warned labour not to embark on a strike on the eve of the Salah holiday, noting it would be an act of hostility toward Muslims.

President Tinubu's led government has condemned the shutting down of the national grid by the organised labour, noting the action amounted to treasonable felony.

A few hours after suspending the nationwide strike, labor said they were not fixated on a figure but would consider a fair figure that could sustain a family of six.

The federal government and organised labour have continued negotiations regarding the new minimum wage. This came after the unions suspended the nationwide strike.
