Underpayment Controversy: LAWMA Worker’s Bold Claims
A Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) worker has publicly accused her employers of underpaying staff, claiming they receive ₦30,000 monthly instead of the newly approved ₦85,000 salary. In a video circulating on social media, the worker alleges that despite the Lagos State government’s recent salary increment for waste management staff, the increase has not been reflected in their pay. She calls on the authorities to address the discrepancy and ensure that workers receive their rightful wages.
The Lagos State government had announced a salary increase for LAWMA workers to improve their welfare and recognize their essential role in maintaining the city’s cleanliness. However, the worker’s claims suggest that this policy has not been implemented at the grassroots level. The video has sparked discussions online, with many urging the relevant authorities to investigate the matter and ensure fair compensation for all LAWMA employees.
As of now, there has been no official response from LAWMA or the Lagos State government regarding these allegations. The situation highlights the importance of transparent communication and effective policy implementation to uphold workers’ rights and welfare.
