Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has directed the immediate payment of N70,000, the new minimum wage, for all administration staff.
The move comes after President Bola Tinubu signed the new Minimum Wage Bill into law in May 2024, following months of negotiation with organized labour.
The approval was announced in a statement signed by Anthony Odeh, Press Secretary to the Head of the Civil Service of the FCT, and made available to journalists on Tuesday.
According to the statement, Wike approved the payment of the minimum wage on Monday, November 18, 2024, to alleviate the plight of workers under the Federal Capital Territory Administration.
The Acting Head of Civil Service of FCT, Mrs Grace Adayilo, disclosed that the minister also approved for payment of three months’ arrears for all staff of the administration with effect from November 2024.
