Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State on Tuesday announced the increase of salary of workers in the state’s public service.
Sanwo-Olu at a meeting with civil servants of the Lagos State Public Service, during his working visit to the State Secretariat, Alausa, said that the planned increment was informed by the level of inflation in the country, which had been biting hard on the citizens.
The governor, however, did not mention the percentage of the increment and when it would kick off, but that modalities are being worked out for its implementation.
The governor said that a salary increase is on the way and government will work it out as soon as possible.
Sanwo-Olu also said that the workers in the core establishment duty would receive a 25 per cent duty allowance increment.
He promised that the administration would present 100 brand new cars to some of the directors in the civil service, starting from the end of October.
