Governor Umo Eno has said that civil servants in the oil-rich Akwa Ibom State will not enjoy the new minimum wage until staff verifications are completed.
Mr Eno approved N80,000 as the new minimum wage for workers in the state weeks ago—N10,000 higher than the national minimum wage—following a similar move by his Lagos and Rivers State counterparts.
Lagos and Rivers announced N85,000 as minimum wage, with Rivers State commencing payment in November.
