The approval of the wage followed a tripartite meeting involving the Kwara State Government, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), the Trade Union Congress (TUC), and the Joint Negotiating Council (JNC), along with representatives from the organised private sector.

The meeting also saw to the necessary adjustments to salary structures, ensuring fair and adequate compensation for all public servants.

Dr. Nuru, who co-chaired the minimum wage committee, praised the governor’s leadership and support for the committee’s work.

She noted that the agreement would positively impact workers across all 16 local government areas.

The Commissioner reaffirmed the administration’s dedication to improving the livelihoods of its citizens, in line with Governor AbdulRazaq’s broader vision for the state’s growth and prosperity.
