Nigerian Government Cuts Minimum Wage Review Time from Five to Two Years
The Nigerian government has announced plans to shorten the minimum wage review cycle from five years to two, signaling a more frequent adjustment to align with economic realities.
This decision was revealed by the Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Nkeiruka Onyejeocha, during an address in Abia State.
Onyejeocha explained that the revised timeline is part of President Bola Tinubu’s commitment to improving the welfare of Nigerian workers.
She emphasized that the government is determined to ensure that wage reviews happen regularly and in a timely manner.
“We are no longer sticking to the old five-year schedule for minimum wage reviews,” Onyejeocha said.
“Instead, we will now revisit the minimum wage every two years, with the next review set for less than two years from now.”
Nigerian comedian Seyi Law takes to social media as he defends President Bola Tinubu. The comedian stated that the president has done a lot in his administration and claimed that Nigeria is safer and economically sound under his administration.
He then compared how things now to past years under the administration of others, and shared how things were bad. He claimed that now the economy is stabilized.
“Nigeria is safer now than 10 years ago. This government has killed more bandits than any government in Nigeria since the time of Jonathan. When last have you heard of bomb blast in Nigeria?”
It has been reported that fire occurred at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos (MMIA), Terminal 1. This fire incident occurred on Monday, 23rd of February, 2026.
Passengers at that terminal were spotted running away for safety after seeing the fire and the alarm.
The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) released a statement and shared that no life was lost and people were saved and avoided danger.
It has been reported that Kano State has closed down all entertainment spots across the state. This was stated to happen because of the ongoing Ramadan fast.
The federal government shared that the new law will take place from 18th of February, 10 pm, till the last day of Ramadan. This is in order for the people participating in it to truly focus on the fast.
