The Osun State Government has announced the implementation of a N75,000 minimum wage for its civil servants, commencing December 1, 2024, with the payment of one month of arrears.

The decision was finalized during a meeting at the Governor’s office in Abere on Friday, attended by Deputy Governor Kola Adewusi, the Executive Council, and labour leaders led by Comrade Chris Arapasopo of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC).

Speaking on the development, Commissioner for Information Kolapo Alimi said the administration is committed to improving workers’ welfare.

His words: “We are going to commence payment of N75,000 minimum wage on December 1, 2024, and we will also pay one month arrear.”

“This is part of the commitment of the administration of Governor Ademola Adeleke to improve the welfare of workers in the state.

“We raise the bar above the approved minimum wage of the federal government’s N70,000 wage.”

The move comes as other states, such as Imo and Kano, have begun implementing similar wage adjustments.
