NewsOnline Nigeria reports that the Senate has passed the new national minimum wage bill into law, following the request by President Bola Tinubu.
This Nigeria news platform understands that the lawmakers in the upper legislative chambers passed the bill on Tuesday, 23rd July and will now wait for concurrence from the House of Representatives following a letter asking for such from President Bola Tinubu.
The bill passed through the first, second and third readings sequentially in plenary on Tuesday.
The bill, when active, would pave the way for the payment of the new minimum wage of ₦70,000 to Nigerian workers.
The newly passed bill also has a new provision for its review after 3 years, unlike the former provision with a 5-year review period.
