This move is a significant development in the state’s labor relations, as it demonstrates the government’s commitment to improving the welfare of its employees.
The new minimum wage is a result of negotiations between the state government and the organized labor unions.

The committee, which is chaired by the Head of the Civil Service, Elder Effiong Essien, is expected to deliver its report within one month.
Governor Eno’s approval of the new minimum wage has been widely commended by labor leaders and stakeholders in the state.
