The House of Representatives has accused the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) of circulating false information about the earnings of lawmakers.

The House described the action as a deliberate attempt to incite public resentment against lawmakers and undermine the legislature’s credibility.

In a statement signed by its spokesperson, Akin Rotimi, the House expressed concern that such acts could damage the nation’s economy and called for those responsible to be brought to justice. The statement acknowledged the recent industrial action by the NLC and TUC over the national minimum wage and expressed commitment to engaging stakeholders to resolve the issues in the best interest of Nigerians.

The House described the false information as “fake earnings” and warned that it could stoke public resentment against lawmakers and undermine the legislature’s credibility. The statement did not specify what specific information was being referred to, but it emphasized the House’s commitment to transparency and accountability.

The accusation comes as the NLC and TUC have been negotiating with the government for a new national minimum wage. The labour unions have been pushing for an increase in the minimum wage, while the government has been negotiating the terms of the increase.

The House of Representatives has been involved in the negotiations, and it appears that the accusation of spreading false information is a result of the ongoing tensions between the labour unions and the government.
