Recently the Minister of Labor, Emeka Wogu, told the public that President Goodluck Jonathan is in full support of the plan to raise minimum wage. He explained that the reason their has been a delay in signing the bill is due to various administrative processes. Although President Goodluck Jonathan is saying this is the only reason behind the bill not being passed yet, many are beginning to believe that he is just waiting to be re-elected in the election coming up on April 2nd. By letting the public know about the makings of this new bill, President Goodluck Jonathan is more likely to win over support and votes from those in trade and labor unions. This also proves to these unions that he is listening to what they want, and is trying to make positive changes not only to Nigeria's economy, but also for the people of Nigeria. By passing this New Minimum Wage Bill, Jonathan and his administrators are hoping it will begin to bridge the gap between the rich and the poor.
This relates back to class using the systems theory. The inputs would be the trade and labor unions asking for a raise in minimum wage. The process would be the bill being formed. The outputs would be the actual bill. Finally the feedback would be all the extra support President Goodluck Jonathan is receiving from the fact that he is showing the people that he is actually listening to them.
