Workers in Nigeria are poorly paid – Osinbajo

Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo conceded that Nigerian workers in Nigeria are poorly paid.

Osinbajo stated this at an event held at the Aso Rock Presidential Villa in Abuja during the State House Press Corps end of the year seminar titled “Journalists and Retirement Plan”.

Public sector earnings must be scrutinised, with a view to determining the right wages for workers. He said

He also added that all employers must be compelled to key into the contributory pension scheme.

“Generally speaking people are poorly paid, so there is need to look at why people are poorly paid. Public sector earning must be looked at and determined what should be paid and what is right for people to earn,” Osinbajo remarked.
