Minimum wage: NANTs warns against hike in commodity prices vanguardngr.com vanguardnews
Mr Ken Ukaoha, President, National Association of Nigerian Traders , has cautioned members of the group to refrain from unnecessary price increase in commodities in view of the minimum wage increase.Ukaoha made the call in Abuja on Monday at a workshop organised for NANTs leadership on tracking the commitment of political actors to the Farmers’ Manifesto and Traders’ Charter of Demand.
According to him, such a negative cycle will only be multiplying poverty to everyone and dealing a dirty blow on the overall economy which has further implications for everyone. Ukaoha said that the workshop would be used to train members on tracking the commitment of political actors to the charter of demand.
He said the association had always been short-changed by political parties and their members, who had always taken advantage of the low level of the consciousness. According to him, the document calls for the revitalisation of the agriculture extension service in order for the extension workers to help farmers increase their yield.
