Salaries commission raises alarm over fake circular


The Executive Chairman, National Salaries Incomes and Wages Commission, (NSIWC), High Chief Richard Onwuka Egbule, says the Commission has not issued any circular to revise the supplementary allowance payable to security personnel attached to political, public and Judicial office holders.

A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the commission, Mr Emma Njoku, Thursday indicates that the fake circular fraudulently revised the supplementary allowance from N50, 000 to N120,000 per month for officers and from N30,000 to N100,000 per month for other ranks.

The statement noted that the commission’s circular dated 1st November 2017 which conveyed government’s approval for the payment of supplementary allowance of N50, 000 per month for officers and N30,000 per month for other ranks of security personnel has not been revised.

High Chief Egbule, therefore called on MDA’s to disregard the fake circular and any payments already made or intended to be made on account of it should be reversed immediately and all enquiries should be forwarded to the Commission.
