The House of Representatives has advanced the N70,000 minimum wage bill, moving it closer to becoming law. The bill, which was transmitted by President Bola Tinubu, seeks to increase the national minimum wage from its current level.
After passing the Second Reading, the House is set to dissolve into the Committee of the Whole to consider the bill and other related matters. This step signifies significant progress toward improving the wage standards for workers across the country.
