In a significant move for Plateau State’s workforce, Governor Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang has approved the immediate implementation of a new minimum wage of N70,000 following an agreement by the Committee on Consequential Adjustment on Salaries. The decision, made on November 13, 2024, highlights the administration’s dedication to improving the welfare of its employees and recognizing their essential role in advancing the state’s development.
The new minimum wage policy reflects Governor Mutfwang’s commitment to prioritizing the well-being of civil servants, who are integral to achieving the state’s economic and social goals. As this wage adjustment takes effect, civil servants are encouraged to respond by redoubling their dedication to duty, fostering a culture of excellence and productivity across Plateau State’s public service.
Stephen Pam Gadong, Head of Civil Service, conveyed the governor’s message, urging workers to view the new wage as a call to contribute even more effectively to the state’s growth.
