Kebbi Governor Approves N75,000 As Minimum Wage

Kebbi State Governor, Nasir Idris, has today approved N75,000 as the minimum wage for the lowest-paid civil servant in the state.


Governor Idris signed the state minimum wage edict into law a while ago today, at the state house, in the presence of national officials from the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, led by President Joe Ajaero.


Also, Governor Umo Eno has announced a new minimum wage of N80,000 for employees of the Akwa Ibom State government.


To ensure the smooth implementation of the wage increase, the Governor has established an Implementation Committee with a one month deadline to finalize how the new wage will be executed.


The committee, chaired by the State’s Head of Civil Service, includes the Accountant General of the State, the State Chairman of the Joint Public Service Negotiating Council, State Chairmen of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Trade Union Congress, and the Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees, among others.
