Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 36594, member: 636"] Labor Minister Muhammadu Dingyadi claims no previous administration raised worker pay as much as President Tinubu has. He pointed to the minimum wage jump from N30,000 to N70,000 as proof of the president's care for workers. Dingyadi brushed off concerns about currency devaluation, saying many countries face similar problems. Critics say other government actions hurt the wage boost. The removal of fuel subsidies, currency losses, and higher electric bills left workers with less buying power. Some experts believe the administration misleads people about salary increases when money buys less than before. The minister defended these economic choices as needed for everyone, not just workers. He said the free market determines prices, not the government. Dingyadi insisted the administration cares about all citizens who voted them into office. [/QUOTE]
