One of the reasons for accepting N70,000 as national minimum wage was the understanding that the pump price of pms would not be increased even as we knew that N70,000 was not sufficient. We recall vividly when Mr President  gave us  the devil's alternatives to choose from: either N250,000 as minimum wage  (subject to the rise of the pump price between N1,500 and N2,000) and N70,000 (at old pms rates), we opted for the latter because we could not bring ourselves to accept further punishment on Nigerians. But here we are, barely one month after and with  government yet to commence payment of the new national minimum wage, confronted by a reality  we cannot explain. It is both traumatic and nightmarish. Yet, when we told government that it's approach to resolving the fuel subsidy contradictions was pate...
