I Will Pay N100,000 As Minimum Wage If Elected President In 2019 – Sowore

Sahara Reporters publisher, Omoyele Sowore, says he will ensure civil servants in the country receive N100,000 as minimum wage from 2019 if he is elected Nigeria’s president. Speaking at a town hall meeting organised by the party in Badagry, Sowore said “I am in politics to stop this by providing 500,000 jobs yearly. The minimum wage for civil servant will be N100,000 from 2019.”The presidential aspirant said the historic town had been cut off from the rest of the country due to deplorable state of the expressway. “I have traveled all over Nigeria, but I have not seen any international expressway like Lagos-Badagry. We spent almost five hours coming here instead of one and half hours. Badagry town has been cut-off from Nigeria due to deplorable state of the road. This is very shameful,” the presidential aspirant said. “I heard now that politicians are buying Permanent Voters Card (PVC) for N10,000. Please don’t sell your PVC; the PVC is your future. Can you do any business with N10,000? They will buy your card; your future is your PVC; keep it,” he said.Photo Credit: Getty
