Speaking during the commemoration of the 2023 International Workers’ Day celebration at the Eagle Square, Abuja, Ngige noted that the workers will also be paid arrears of the increase from January 2023.
Ngige further noted that the National Salaries, Wages and Income Commission was working towards the finalization of the increase.
It could be recalled that it had earlier reported that only the one hundred and forty-four thousand, seven hundred and sixty-six federal civil servants under the Consolidated Public Service Salary Structure benefited from the introduction of the 40 percent pay rise by the Federal Government.
