President of Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, has said that their drivers earn four times the Nigerian national minimum wage.

Dangote made this know on Tuesday in an interview on Arise Television.

He added that their drivers earn better than graduates, stressing that joining the Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers, NUPENG, should be voluntary.

“The trucks we launched didn’t stop anyone from their work. We hear there will be a loss of jobs. Will our tankers be driven by robots?

“Every truck is about six people. So these trucks they are fighting over will create 24,000 jobs.

“What we are saying is that our salary is almost three or four times their own. After five years free accident, a driver can apply and get a house loan.

“Our drivers earn more than graduates. If you look at what they earn in a month, it’s almost four times the national minimum wage,” he said.
