BREAKING: Tinubu’s Govt Begins Payment of New Minimum Wage To Workers

 

The federal government has commenced payment of the new minimum wage to civil servants on its payroll, effective Thursday, September 26.

Bawa Mokwa, the spokesperson for the Office of the Accountant-General of the Federation, confirmed this in an interview on Thursday.

He assured that workers will start receiving alerts for their new salary payments from Thursday.

Recall that on Tuesday, the National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission said that the payment of the new minimum wage will commence from July 2024.

The NSIWC Chairman, Ekpo Nta, made the disclosure during a press briefing in Abuja.

The commission stated that this was because the date in question was when the President approved the bill after the National Assembly passed it.
