The Borno state Governor, Prof. Babagana Zulum has approved the immediate implementation of the N30,000 minimum wage to 4,491 qualified teachers under the payroll of Local Government Education Authority in the state with effect from August, 1, 2022.

Recall that the State Government under the leadership of Governor Zulum faced accusations in the social media last week that teachers working with public primary schools recieved monthly salary between N7,000 to N11,000 as take home pay.

Governor Babagana Zulum who just returned from Japan after an official engagements gave the approval while having meeting with the chairmen and members of the state Civil service and local government service commissions, Head of Service, as well members of Nigerian Union of Teachers (NUT), and Nigeria Labor Congress (NLC) at the Government House, Maiduguri on Wednesday.

Zulum also assured that promotion benefits of all state civil servants will be implemented from January 2022 to 2023 after promotional examination were conducted, stressing that if Yobe state can conduct promotional examination, what will stop Borno from doing so.

” The problems in the state civil service and the local government service commissions are enormous. Many people could not understand the complexity of problems we have at hand, but I assure you we are going to sit down and address them with time”, He added.

He lamented that about 3,000 teachers on the payrolls of the LEA in the state don’t have any qualified certificates, talk less of experience to teach, but assured that those that are trainable will be trained.

” We will take 1000 unqualified teachers that are trainable to be undergo training at the Colleges of Education Waka Biu and Bama, while others will be trained in collaboration with National Teachers Institutes (NTI) for 6 months, and when pass the competency test, they will be observed into the system”, he further stressed.

Earlier, the Borno state Chairman of the NLC, Comrade Yusuf Inuwa commended the Governor Zulum for the payment of 2020 Leave Grant to the state civil servants and assured him of the labour continued industrial harmony and support.

The NLC leader however appealed for the implementation of the promotional benefits from 2016 to date, 11 months areas of latest verified teachers and 145 staff that have pending issues, as well as implementation of N30,000 minimum wage to local government workers.

Nigeria politicians are all the same if u like repackage dem nd rebrand dem las las he go still show for dere body....

Well done. Most states in the South don't pay up to that.

Elections are around the corner.
So all these years we've been saying their minimum wage is ₦30k, Borno State is yet to get it.

That's right

Poo
This country is completely bleeping off.
With the current economy situation in this country the least the government should pay it workers should be 200k.
How does someone survive with 30k for the whole month?

Does these people have a different market where they shop more for less?

I pity Nigerians in Nigeria!!

Wickedness.

Quite interesting

After the fake scumbag was exposed on social media.
Thanks be to God for vigilant Nigerians outing all these fake propagandist governors with their a-looter agenda to get promoted for mor stealing of our commonwealth.
Are we wiser now

This is the most active governor in Nigeria

The 30k is already useless before approving it.
What 30k can buy then, you will need 60k to buy such now

Ff

Less than $50 USD a month for working 8-4 . Nigeria is in a big mess.

N30,000? And still expect a teacher to give his or her best? While Kenya, a country Nigeria is richer than, is paying her public primary school teachers about an equivalent of $200 monthly.

Prof Zulum..you fall my hand small...

Ha...so it's true you've not implemented the minimum wage of #30,000 since how many years now....when some states are already talking about upgrading to #40,000.

So, you've been paying some of your school teachers less than #30,000 That's bad..

You fall hand small.

Active in deception, lies and propaganda?
Or active in what else please

It's not about election, the man is doing way better than your governors down south

A little too late... Inflation has drastically diminished the value of that wage to the same level as the previous one.

The funny thing is that the dude will actually think he is doing the workers a huge favor!

Well, Nigerians have such ridiculously limited leadership expectations and standards... That's why every politician gets away with murder.

So Saint Zulum never implement minimum wage after 3 years?

What was he doing in that time period?

E(r)ection Junky

We allow ourselves to be deceived so easily by not reading and researching extensively on any & every subject matter before reaching a conclusion.

Pretending to be active with a lot of paparazzi photo-ops to blindside those who should have found out more before getting scammed by the scumbag politician.

This zulum seem like the only reasonable governor in North.

Others are mere ẹrẹja ẹsebẹse
