Governor Mai Mala Buni has approved the payment of ₦70, 000 minimum wage for the lowest workers on the payroll of the
Yobe State Government with effect from December 2024.
Spokesperson to the governor, Mamman Mohammed says the approval followed a recommendation of the committee on Minimum wage constituted by the state government.
The committee had recommended a reconciliation of local government finances to ensure a hitch-free transition process of the local government councils from the existing salary structure to the new minimum wage.
According to a statement by the spokesman, the reconciliation process which is nearing completion is expected to be concluded soon for approval, and quick enrolment of the local government employees into the new minimum wage salary structure.
The government expects civil servants in the state to reciprocate the gesture by putting in their best to ensure effective and efficient service delivery
