The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governors’ Forum has backed the demand for a new minimum wage by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC).

The governors also supported the federal government’s stance on granting autonomy to local governments.

He called for a political solution to the ongoing crisis in Rivers State between Governor Sim Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike.
