FG workers to receive N35,000 wage award for six months

Following consultations between the federal government and leadership of the labour unions at the Presidential Villa recently, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has approved the payment of N35,000 as a provisional wage award for all treasury-paid federal government workers for a period of six months.

This is according to the nation’s Minister of Information and National Orientation, Malam Mohammed Idris who made the announcement in a statement on Sunday in Abuja.

According to the Minister, the Federal Government while at the meeting with Labour Unions, had promised that it was committed to fast-tracking the provision of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) buses to ease public transportation which the FG says has been occasioned by the recent subsidy removal on PMS.
