During a televised interview on Channels TV, Sanwo-Olu disclosed that thorough discussions with labor unions preceded this decision.

Lagos’ new minimum wage exceeds the federal government’s approved N70,000, acknowledging the state’s elevated cost of living.

Sanwo-Olu emphasized affordability and capacity as key factors, dispelling notions of inter-state competition.

This development follows prolonged federal negotiations with labor unions, seeking improved working conditions.

Sanwo-Olu’s declaration aligns with Lagos’ commitment to worker welfare.
