Tinubu 4 Ahmed

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration has commenced payment of the N35,000 wage award to federal civil servants, under the Consolidated Public Service Salary Structure.

According to reports, some civil servants confirmed that they started receiving credit alerts on Tuesday, October 31. Workers confirm payment of N35,000 wage award.

A civil servant, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said: "Yes, I did receive it. I saw the alert about 15 minutes ago. I think it is for September because the alert indicated September."

Another civil servant said: "Yes, I have seen mine too, but we are expecting to see another alert because the President said it would start from September so maybe another one will come which will read October."

Tinubu approves N35,000 wage award for civil servants.

Earlier, Torizone reported that Tinubu approved the payment of N35,000 wage awarded to civil servants under his administration.

The National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission, (NSIWC), confirmed the development and said implementation of the N35,000.00 per month wage award for Federal Government Ministries, Departments and Agencies will be funded from the treasury.

Ekpo Nta, the chairman/chief executive officer of NSIWC, disclosed that this only applies to treasury-funded offices while non-treasury-funded Tinubu's government agencies are to implement the same from their Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) or statutory allocations.
