Both parties signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) following the conclusion of the assignment by the committee set up to handle the adjustments.

The 16-member committee, inaugurated by the federal government two weeks ago, was tasked with determining the necessary adjustments to salaries in line with the new minimum wage of N70,000, which was approved by President Bola Tinubu.

The committee was chaired by the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Mrs. Didi Walson-Jack, who represented President Tinubu during the committee’s inauguration.

The minimum wage increase from N30,000 to N70,000 was officially approved by the President on July 18, 2024.
