Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has denied approving N80,000 as minimum wage for civil servants in the state.

Fubara, in a statement issued in Port Harcourt by his media aide, Nelson Chukwudi, described the report published by an online medium as “false and misleading”.

“Ordinarily, we would not have responded to this fake news, but for the wrong impression it would create in the minds of the public, especially civil servants in the State. Therefore, it is important to state that the unverified claims being circulated by Newsweekng.com titled: ‘Breaking News: Governor Fubara Proposes N80,000 minimum wage’ is totally false and misleading.

“The general public, and particularly civil servants in the State, are advised to discountenance the false claims in the online media platform. The Rivers State Government will make its position on the issue known in due course.”
