    The Niger State Government and the state chapter of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) have reached and signed agreement for the implementation of N80,000 minimum wage.

    This was contained in a communique issued at the end of the State Executive Council SEC meeting of the NLC held at the labour House in Minna on Friday 22, November, 2024 and signed by the State Secretary of the Council, Comrade Salihu Mohammed Rijau.

    The communique explained that the N1.6 billion added represents an increase of up to 700percent when compared to the amount added to N18,000 minimum wage to make it N30,000 in 2020, highlighting that the agreement includes a clause that in January 2025, the N80,000 Niger State minimum wage shall be implemented to 80 percent from the 70 percent to be paid in November and December 2024.

    The communique said the shortfall for some levels of health workers and tertiary institutions workers is to be augmented from the savings of doctored tables such that, no worker will receive less than 20 percent of what was paid in September 2024.

    It said all corrections should be within the approved lump sum of N1.6 billion by the state governor.

    The SEC, in session, appreciated Governor Mohammed Umaru Bago, Deputy Governor Comrade Yakubu Garba, Head of Service, and Commissioner of Finance for the approval of the N80,000 minimum wage.

    The Communique further explained that there is room for amendment before the payment of November 2024 salaries, emphasizing that another opportunity for amendment is there in January 2025.
