Governor insists on N70,000 minimum wage workers
Governor Chukwuma Soludo said if he allows deductions like union dues, tax and other things, the workers might be receiving between N78,000 to 84,000 every month.
However, he said he decided not to announce the figure because it would still come down to N70,000
