The Southwest governors said on Monday that the negotiations between the Nigerian government and organised labour should reflect fiscal federalism.<\/p>\n
The governors said they support whatever outcome of the negotiation on the minimum wage.<\/p>\n
This was disclosed by the chairman of the forum, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State, after a meeting of the governors in the state.<\/p>\n
Posting on X, Sanwo-Olu wrote: \u201cAfter the conclusion of our South West Governors\u2019 Forum meeting today at Lagos House Alausa, Ikeja, I was elected as the new chairman of the forum.<\/p>\n
\u201cToday, we honour the memory of our late chairman, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi O. Akeredolu, SAN, CON. May his soul rest in peace.<\/p>\n
\u201cDuring our discussions on various issues affecting our states, we reached the following resolutions: We are grateful to the House of Representatives and South West Caucus for their efforts on the South West Development Commission Bill and urge the Senate to expedite its passage.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe commend Mr. President, H.E. Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, for the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road project and other initiatives, and we call for further road rehabilitation by the Federal Government.<\/p>\n
\u201cOn the matter of security, we are pleased with the peace in the South West and advocate for the establishment of state police. Collaboration between security agencies and the Amotekun Corps is very important.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe stand united in supporting ongoing discussions on the minimum wage with an expectation of fair outcomes that reflect fiscal federalism. We endorse the Federal Government\u2019s efforts on mineral resources and urge increased collaboration with states in granting leases to investors.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have agreed to bolster the efficiency of the DAWN Commission, with a focus on economic integration. These decisions and more are aimed at advancing the development and prosperity of our South West states.\u201d<\/p>\n
