Willie Obiano

Anambra State workers would from July this year begin to earn a new minimum wage.
The Commissioner for Information, Mr. C-Don Adinuba, who announced this during his first post exco press briefing at the Government House, Awka, said that although the minimum wage would have taken off in April, the state had to wait for the Federal Government pronouncement on the issue, so it would not work against the laws of the nation.

He also announced that Anambra is set to launch a 50-year development plan for a sustainable development of the state.

The Commissioner said a committee to handle the take off and running of the development plan would be inaugurated within the next two weeks.

He said the state would witness faster growth and asked for the cooperation of all and sundry in order to enable Governor Willie Obiano realise his development goal in the state.

He said although the governor achieved a lot in his first tenure, he has plans to make Anambra the most competitive state in the country.

Adinuba said that the secretariat in Awka would soon wear a new look, while two bridges would be constructed at the Regina Ciely Junction in Awka and at Orumbanasa area of the state adding that the Orumbanasa bridge would be a military bridge.

The state government, he said, had also decided to dualise the Awka road in Onitsha and warned that street trading in Onitsha would no longer be tolerated.

He said the local council election was stalled by litigation pending in the court adding that as soon as they were discharged , the election would be conducted.

post=66279011:

Anambra pay #18,000 minimum wage they want to increase the wage

pinnket:




Meaning they've actually been paying some people below the minimum wage since?.

My heart goes out to the secretaries...





Imagine a government agreeing to start paying minimum wage of #18,000 (which is actually their right to collect) in this modern day, and some people here are commending them, instead of probing them to know why they have refused to pay the stipulated minimum wage all along.... Indeed, Nigeria deserves the kind of government it has...

I hope you are joking, comparing a decent, progressive Governor like Obiano with a fraudster.

gozzlin:


Please don't say what you don't know. Okorocha is not in the same league as Obiano. Okorocha is easily the worst governor in the southeast.

Lalasticlala take note that this is the new national minimum wage. Anambra is the first to implement it nationwide. Let it reflect on the subject of this thread in order not to misinform the readers.
