Kano State Government has commenced the implementation of the newly approved ₦71,000 minimum wage for its workers.
This move comes barely three weeks after receiving and approving the recommendations of a special committee set up to review the minimum wage.
True to its tradition of paying salaries on the 25th of every month, the state government ensured workers received their November salaries reflecting the approved increment.
Speaking on the development, the Head of Civil Service, Alhaji Abdullahi Musa, expressed profound gratitude to Almighty Allah and commended the governor for fulfilling his promise.
“Since the very day His Excellency made the pronouncement on the salary increase, I remained optimistic that the governor’s words would be matched with action,” he said.
Visibly elated, Musa urged civil servants to reciprocate the government’s gesture with dedication and commitment.
“This increment is a call for us to rededicate ourselves to effective and efficient service delivery. Let us exhibit hard work and fear of God in our duties to fully justify what we are earning,” he advised.
The Head of Service further encouraged workers to judiciously utilise the additional income.
“Avoid extravagant spending and use this increment to better your living conditions,” he admonished.
Musa also revealed that the state government had commenced the payment of allowances for health workers as part of its commitment to improving workers’ welfare.
The news was met with widespread celebration among Kano State workers. A cross-section of civil servants expressed joy upon receiving alerts reflecting their revised salaries.
One worker, visibly excited, said, “This is a life-changing move by the government. It will ease the economic pressure many of us have been facing.”
Another worker, a teacher at a public school, added, “The governor has truly demonstrated his commitment to our welfare. This increment will motivate us to give our best in our roles.”
The Director of Public Enlightenment in the Office of the Head of Civil Service, Aliyu Yusuf, reiterated the state government’s dedication to improving workers’ welfare and encouraged civil servants to remain steadfast in their duties.
