Minimum wage: ₦30,000
Fuel: ₦185/litre
₦30,000 could buy 162 litres of fuel.
Now:
Minimum wage: ₦70,000
Fuel: ₦1,359/litre
₦70,000 can buy only 51.5 litres of fuel.
So the minimum wage increased from ₦30,000 to ₦70,000, but the purchasing power of that wage for petrol collapsed from 162 litres to just 51.5 litres.
Minimum wage increased less than 3 times.
Fuel price increased more than 7 times.
And they want people to vote for them because they increased minimum wage, and Governors are no longer owing salaries. 😂
Pa Tinubu and his MMM economy 😀
