| Zamfara Government Cracks Down on Multiple Salary Recipients in Civil Service |
Governor Lawal expressed dissatisfaction with the current state of workers' remuneration and working conditions, but emphasized the need to ascertain the actual number of genuine workers to determine a fair minimum wage.
In a bid to sanitize the state civil service, Zamfara Governor Dauda Lawal has declared a clampdown on workers receiving multiple salaries. The governor made this announcement during the 2024 Workers' Day celebration in Gusau, urging workers to support the administration's efforts to tackle corruption and irregularities.
Governor Lawal expressed dissatisfaction with the current state of workers' remuneration and working conditions, but emphasized the need to ascertain the actual number of genuine workers to determine a fair minimum wage. He assured that his administration is working to authenticate the real staff of both state and local government, promising to announce a new minimum wage once the process is complete.
The governor reiterated that his administration's policies aim to reform the public service and economy, not to witch-hunt anyone. He highlighted the progress made so far, including the payment of N3.841 billion in gratuity and pension backlog for state and local government employees. This effort will continue until all outstanding pension and gratuity are paid in full.
In essence, the Zamfara government is taking decisive action to address corruption and irregularities in the civil service, ensuring a more efficient and equitable system for all workers.
