Relief has finally comes to civil servants across the 36 States of the federation as Governors of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) said they were set to pay the N30,000 minimum wage recently signed into law by President Muhammadu Buhari.

The Chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum, Governor Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa State, disclosed to newsmen early Friday morning at the end of forum’s meeting held in Abuja, the nation’s capital.

Dickson said that the governors are ready and committed in paying the new minimum wage to reduce the suffering of workers in the party’s controlled state in the country.

He said, “We are very eager as PDP Governors to implement and pay the 30,000 naira minimum wage that the Federal Government announced.

“We want to do so to alleviate the plight of the long suffering Nigerian worker who have been under-paid for long and the workers who are currently groaning in economic hardship as a result of what has gone wrong with the economy since the All Progressive Congress (APC) government took over”.

He urged the President to speed up the process in paying the new minimum wage by transmitting a bill to the incoming ninth National Assembly to look into the country’s revenue sharing formula.

He added, “So, we call on the Federal Government to expedite the process of presenting a bill to that effect”.
