The Katsina State government has approved a new minimum wage of ₦70,000 for civil servants.

Governor Dikko Radda announced the decision during a press briefing on Friday, stating that the adjustment will take effect from December 1, 2024.

This development follows President Bola Tinubu’s earlier approval of ₦70,000 as the national minimum wage after extensive negotiations between labor unions, the private sector, and the government.
