Written by Questit on January 13, 2020
THE DELTA STATE GOVERNMENT HAS MADE GOOD ITS PROMISE BY SIGNING THE NEW MINIMUM WAGE, IN THE STATE CAPITAL ASABA, WITH EFFECT FROM NOVEMBER 1, LAST YEAR.
THE NEW WAGE INCREMENT WOULD COST THE STATE OVER N700M MONTHLY AND THE PACT ENSURES THAT THE TWO MONTHS ARREARS OF NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER LAST YEAR WOULD BE PAID INSTALMENTALLY ALONGSIDE JANUARY AND FEBRUARY SALARIES.
