Niger State Governor, Mohammed Umar Bago, has given the go ahead for the disbursement of a N20,000 wage award to all civil servants in the state.

“The mechanism is the fact that that it won’t be inflationary if we announce the new salary wage in a few weeks or months, they would have gotten use to the basic wages of N30,000 plus the wages award, it will have dampening effect on the market. Please get sub-nationals together and NEC should adopt this”, Tinubu said.

Governor Bago assured that the payment would commence without fail, with workers set to receive alerts accordingly.
