The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has proposed N709,000 as the new minimum wage for workers.
The Congress made the presentation at the ongoing public hearing on minimum wage in Abuja.
The Trade Union Congress (TUC) on the other hand proposed N447, 000 for consideration as the new minimum wage.
The two labour unions said their figures were largely influenced by the present realities.
However, Kwara, Nasarawa, and Niger failed to propose any figure to pay their workers.
It was gathered that only Plateau state proposed N81,000 for consideration as the new national minimum.
