sir wat of non academic staff in universities

Nothing for them

Ngige is a psychiatric patient. Now the market women will think that all workers SALARY have increased.

DKM123:


Why is APC always this deceptive. Yet they make it seem as though it is all Federal Civil servants that had 40 percent increased salaries thereby making cost of things to increase.
Meanwhile it's less than 10 percent of federal civil servants that had the increase (which is nothing by the way compared to the rising inflation and the subsidy removal that is coming ahead).

This APC is such a lying deceitful party and it's how nairaland is playing along with the fake headline and still has not corrected it till now. Tufiakwa.

FG begins 40% pay rise for workers, excludes doctors, lecturers

23rd April 2023




Only the 144,766 federal civil servants under the Consolidated Public Service Salary Structure will benefit from the new 40 per cent peculiar allowance introduced by the Federal Government.

This implies that other workers under the employment of the Federal Government but operating under different salary structures will not benefit.

For instance, university workers, who are under the Consolidated University Academic Salary Structure, and medical doctors, who work for the Federal Government, will also not benefit from the pay rise as they are under the Consolidated Medical Salary Scale.

Other categories of federal workers who will not benefit from the peculiar allowance are nurses, non-academic workers in tertiary institutions, the police and members of the armed forces, among others.

In a memo obtained by our correspondent on Saturday, the National Salaries Income and Wages Commission headed by Ekpo Nta noted that only 144,766 staff members of the federal civil service under the CONPSS salary structure would be paid.

Ekpo said in a memo addressed to the Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Zainab Ahmed, which was sighted by our correspondent on Saturday, “I refer to my letter No. SWC/S/04/S,651/11/271 dated 24th of February, 2023 and the conclusions of the 11th meeting of the Presidential Committee on Salaries held on 7th of March, 2023 on the above-mentioned subject and convey approval for the Federal Ministry of Finance, Budget and National Planning to implement the peculiar allowance attached herewith for staff on the Consolidated Public Service Salary Structure.”

“This approval takes effect from 1st of January, 2023 and the estimated sum of seventy nine billion, three hundred and seventy-three million, three hundred and forty thousand, nine hundred and fifty-nine Naira (N79,373,340,959.00) per annum required to implement it for the 144,766 staff on CONPSS will be funded from the treasury.

“The commission will periodically monitor the implementation of this approval through salary inspections.”

In a breakdown attached to the memo, the commission stated that a total of 144,766 staff members would benefit from the payment.

The Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, had disclosed that the Federal Government approved a pay raise for civil servants in the country.

He added that the pay rise had been included in the 2023 budget, noting that it would take effect from January 1, 2023.

Ngige described the pay raise as a peculiar allowance for civil servants in view of the current economic reality and it was meant to help government workers to cushion the effects of rising inflation, rising cost of living, and hikes in transportation fare, housing and electricity tariffs.

ASUU, however, protested the exclusion of its members from the payment of the peculiar allowance.

The National President of the union, Prof Emmanuel Osodeke, accused the government of trying to create problems in the system, adding that ASUU would study the situation on the ground and make its stand known soon.

“We just saw the news this evening that arrears are being paid to workers. We are surprised. However, we will study the situation. The government is simply trying to create a problem in the system. We are watching and we are studying the situation of things on the ground,” he told our correspondent on the telephone.


The government will spend N79.37bn annually to fund the pay rise, even as some workers have started enjoying the largesse.

The amount, according to information obtained by our correspondent, will be funded from the treasury.

Some federal civil servants, who spoke to our correspondent on Saturday, said they had started receiving bank alerts of the arrears for the first three months of the year.

A high ranking civil servant in Ilorin the Kwara State, who spoke on condition of anonymity, noted that the arrears came in alongside the April salary.

“I received my own arrears today (Saturday). Some of our other colleagues have also confirmed receipt of the arrears. It came in alongside our April salaries,” the civil servant said.

An Ibadan-based civil servant, who confirmed the development, said, “Yes, it is true. Though I am a teacher in a Federal Government school, I can confirm to you that I received my April salary alongside the arrears.”

The regime of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), had proposed a 40 per cent pay rise for workers to cushion the effects of the planned removal of fuel subsidy.

The spokesman for the Ministry of Labour, Employment and Productivity, Olajide Oshundun, said the pay rise would be applicable to all workers from level 1 to 17.

NARD reaction
The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors has kicked against the exclusion of doctors from the Federal Government’s pay rise for civil servants.

Speaking with Saturday PUNCH, the President of NARD, Dr Emeka Orji, said, “Our members are not happy with that development, because since over one year that the Federal Government commenced the processes of increment in the Consolidated Medical Salary Structure both for doctors and other health workers, that process has yet to be completed.

“We are happy that they increased the salary of civil servants, but the only thing is that they have yet to do ours up till now. These are some of the things causing agitation.

“I’m sure that when we have our national emergency council meeting on Friday, April 28, 2023, this will be part of the major discussions and decisions will be taken in that meeting.”

Orji said the association might be forced to take a more drastic action if urgent steps were not taken regarding pay rise for its members.

He added, “We have gone past the era of petitioning the government. We are currently having a hard time calming our members down and it may not be as easy as we did at the January NEC meeting.

“Instead of increasing the salary, the government is trying to use the back door to sponsor a bill to restrict our movement.”

Your estimation is totally wrong 40% of 200m nigerian population is obviously 80m people there's no way in hell the federal govt employed that number of nigerians. I don't even think the whole federal civil servants that federal govt is paying is even up to 1m.

I said less than 40% not 40%. 5 is less than 40. So it could be any figure from 1% to 39%

Bro this increment does not cut across the entire labour force

Just 1% of civil/public servants got the 40% increment.

Now you tell us how the remaining workforce that did not get this 40% will cope with the multiplier effect of subsidy removal!

My brother, I share same sentiment with you. It's bad enough that the rest of us not under conpss didn't benefit from this 40% increment. But would you believe that even with the 40% thing, a conpss worker on a particular level is still not earning upto what his colleagues in other salary schemes are earning? Conpss was so so poor that the government had to do something. But we sef dem suppose give us raise, even if not up to 40%. It's well, we go survive.

Police Teachers with CONPSS salary structure under Federal Ministry of Police Affairs were excluded from the FG salary increment despite the directives that all workers on CONPSS should be paid 40% peculiary allowance. Why is the Nigeria Police denying the Police Teachers their salary increase?
