Senate President Bukola Saraki addressed the Nigerian Labour Union protesters, promised a review of National Minimum Wage and support for the executive to get Nigeria out of recession.

He said: “We are on the same side, because we all want Nigeria to be better!”

“I hear you! The exchange rate is high, the tension is high — the only thing that has stayed low are your salaries.”

“As we continue with the budget process, we must find palliative measures. We cannot continue like this!”.
