"Truly, we have demanded that the governors ought to go to their particular states and illuminate specialists and their groups of their individual positions on the new national the lowest pay permitted by law of N30,000.

"They should tell their laborers and their families that they can't manage the cost of N30,000 as their month to month compensations.

"Alhaji Yari should halt from utilizing the stage of the Nigeria Governors' Forum to look for political pertinence.

"His strategies of shakedown against specialists are as of now timeworn and the stench is as of now hostile.

"The administration of the Nigeria Labor Congress and Organized Labor encourage specialists to stay enduring and firm on our rights to respectable wages and enhanced living conditions. To the oppressors, we have just a single response for you – we will never rest on our rights.

"We are presently repeating our mandate to Nigerian specialists to cast a ballot out any government official or political gathering that declines to pay the new national the lowest pay permitted by law of N30,000.

"Regardless, we have made it realized that the Governors Forum is unlawful. The 1999 Constitution (as corrected) just perceives singular states in the Collective Bargaining Process and not Nigeria Governors Forum."
