Kanu stated this while briefing newsmen on the outcome of this week’s State Executive Council meeting chaired by Governor Alex Otti, in Umuahia, the state’s capital.

“Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the state government will commence the payment of the national minimum wage in October 2024,” he noted.

He said the decision underscores the commitment of the government, and the Governor’s promise to improve the welfare of the civil servants.
