If The Minimum Wage Is Implemented, Does That Include The Army by payaseriy(op): 11:52am On Jun 05, 2024
I'm asking for a friend who is a sergeant with about 50K as salary.

Does that mean his salary will be increased?

Someone should please explain

Seargents in the army aren't earning 50k a month oga; it's way more than that. Just ask him to show you his pay slip

It will be increased too only if the COAS agreed to increase it, just like it is left for governors to implement that of state civil servants.

A sergeant collects not less than 100k currently.

I think you are somehow right, bt after deduction for almost everything in the barrack including light bills or so, he gets less than 55k. That's d alert he gets every month

Except he buys on credit and settle once alert enter😄, he is not responsible for light bill or whatever bill in the barracks.
In a nutshell; he should expect a raise if the new wage is implemented but he shouldn't be making plans on it now o. 😂

My private sector where I work, our cleaners are under minimum wage. But 10k was added for cost of living adjustment. If they increase the minimum wage to 100k that mean they will be earning 100k and other staffs whose salaries are above minimum wage will be adjusted base on the percentage differences.

All governorment workers (civil servants) would get an increase. Soldiers are also civil servants.

I was speaking with a kid whom I knew from way back, he got into the army from Zaria deport just a little over one year ago, he says his allowance plus salary is around 70k.
Somehow, a sergeant is receiving 50k?

there is equally what they call none regular allowance that they paid them every month and I think Sgt own should be up to 30k. I love the Army Sha they are always secretive when it's comes to their welfare.
