The announcement was made by the governor while speaking at the commissioning of the newly built ultra-modern Labour House secretariat complex for labor unions in the state, along Temboga Road, Ikpoba-Hill, Benin City on Monday, April 29, 2024.

Governor Obaseki said the new minimum wage in the state will take effect from May 1, 2024.
