FG hints on salary increment for Nigerian workers

After increasing minimum wage, the federal government has revealed on plans to increase the salaries of public and civil servants.

The Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr. Chris Ngige, told Journalists on Monday that a Presidential Committee on Salaries is doing a review of the existing salary structures and is expected to come up with salary adjustment early in 2023.
