ENUGU GOVERNOR, PETER MBAH, INAUGURATES MINIMUM WAGE IMPLEMENTATION COMMITTEE

Governor Peter Mbah of Enugu State has inaugurated the Committee for the implementation of the New National Minimum Wage for Civil and Public Servants in Enugu State, giving the Committee a maximum of one month to submit its report.

The Committee which was inaugurated on Thursday at the Government House, Enugu, had the Head of Service, Kenneth Ugwu, as Chairman; representative of the Office of the Secretary to the State Government, Sandra George as Secretary and the Commissioner of Finance and Economic Development, Dr. Nathaniel Uramah.

Others are the Commissioner for Labour and Employment, Pharm Chika Ugwuoke; and Accountant-General of the state, Mr. Anthony Okenwa as members.

On the Labour side, the Chairman of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Enugu State chapter, Comrade Fabian Nwigbo and Chairman of the state chapter of the Trade Union Congress (TUC), Comrade Benedict Asogwa.

Others are the Chairman, Public Service Joint Negotiating Council, Comrade Ezekiel Omeh and Chairman of the state chapter of the National Union of Local Government Employees, Comrade Udaya Ani are members.

Inaugurating the Committee, Governor Mbah reiterated his commitment to workers’ welfare and urged the Committee to consult widely with relevant stakeholders, especially the Ministries, Departments, and Agencies, to ensure that the workers take ownership of the eventual report.

“We have set very ambitious targets for ourselves, and we know that the only thing between us and achieving these targets will be the human resources because as great as our visions and dreams might be, it would be impossible to anything if we do not have a motivated workforce.

“We recognised it from the very onset, which is why before the discussions on the new minimum wage came up, we introduced the wage awards, and made a commitment that we would not cease until we migrate to the new minimum wage.

“That is why the constitution of this Committee for the implementation of the new national minimum wage is a very important exercise, and we have carefully selected members of this committee. We believe that you will be able to discharge yourself creditably,” he said.

The governor added that, “We expect, as terms of reference, you should be able to come up with a comprehensive review of the salary chat of all categories and cadres of workers of both the state and the local government levels, the unified local government system, using the existing state salary chat as a guide.

“Finally, we will expect to have a detailed report submitted within a month. We want to get on with the implementation of the new national minimum wage as quickly as possible.”

Speaking, the Committee Chairman and Head of Service, Kenneth Ugwu, assured that the governor that the committee would surpass his expectation both in terms of time frame and quality of work.

“We are aware of your commitment to the welfare and motivation of the great workers of Enugu State. All our recommendations are going to be aligned with your vision for a highly motivated and productive public service.

“We are not only going to meet your expectations, but we are also going to surpass it. One-month period is given to us, but I assure you hat we are going to submit our recommendations in record time,” he stated.

Speaking to Government House correspondent, Chairman of TUC, Comrade Asogwa, said Governor Mbah’s prompt action did not come to Enugu workers as a surprise, as he had been paying wage awards to workers since 2023.

“The governor also made a promise to the health professionals to pay the 100 per cent Consolidated Health Workers Salary Structure (CONHESS) starting from this month of August.

“If you go to the health industry within the state today, all the health professionals are happy because they have started receiving the new salary alerts as promised.

“So, setting up this Committee did not come to us as a surprise because we know the kind of person we have as a Governor. He is not playing. The governor understands what it means to enter into social contract with his people.

“We have confidence in him. We feel happy that in no distant time, our financial situation as Enugu worker will be improved in Enugu State,” he said.

    196 SOLDIERS RESIGN FROM NIGERIAN ARMY OVER CORRUPTION, LOW MORALE

    ANOTHER 196 SOLDIERS RESIGN FROM NIGERIAN ARMY OVER CORRUPTION, LOW MORALE No fewer than 196 soldiers in the North-East and other theatres of operation have applied to the Chief of Army Staff, Lt Gen Taoreed Lagbaja, for voluntary retirement. The action comes amid worsening security challenges the military is currently combating in most parts of the country. Sources revealed that most of the soldiers resigning had indicated interest to join the military forces of other countries, including the British Army, Ukrainian Army, and other Commonwealth nations. The soldiers, drawn from various formations of the army across the country according to the list obtained on Saturday, are all junior cadres. The Chief of Army Staff has since approved their formal disengagement. The list of the exiting soldiers did not distinguish between those embarking on voluntary retirement and those leaving the army on medical grounds. However, none of them had neither attained retirement age nor the mandatory years of service. The approval of their voluntary disengagement dated August 23 was signed by Brigadier OH Musa. There have been allegations of corruption in the Nigerian Army which some of the soldiers have blamed on the issue – soldiers overstaying in the North-East. According to some soldiers, the army is the epitome of deep-seated corruption. They noted that the corruption is affecting the prosecution of the anti-terrorism war in the North-East. They complained that they were being forced to confront Boko Haram militants, adding that their low morale and lack of willingness to continue to fight made it possible for terrorists to dislodge some military camps recently. They complained of abandonment and accused the military authorities of keeping them on the war front beyond their approved period Moves by many soldiers to resign over poor welfare, inadequate equipment, and lack of motivation within the Nigerian Army. Multiple sources who spoke to the newspaper had expressed frustration with the Nigerian government’s failure to provide them with decent living conditions, modern weapons, and adequate compensation to combat a series of non-state actors ravaging the country. “A set of 27 personnel are leaving and this set is only medical corps. Infantry corps and armoured corps are still coming. So many more will leave. “Soldiers are leaving because the work is no longer sustainable. People are running every day to join British Army, Ukraine, Russia, Commonwealth army and the likes. That’s what is happening now,” one of the sources in the Nigerian military had said “Even the planned protest, many soldiers are praying it should happen,” another source added.

    AJURI NGALARE WAS SACKED, NOT RESIGNED – INVESTIGATION

    AJURI NGALARE WAS SACKED, NOT RESIGNED – INVESTIGATION Contrary to Ajuri Ngelale’s public claims that he stepped down as Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity due to a “vexatious medical situation” in his family, Federal government sources have revealed that the former presidential spokesman was in fact fired. Ngelale’s resignation, according to insiders, was part of a face-saving measure after his repeated pleas for a “soft landing” were granted by the presidency.Ngelale, who also served as Special Presidential Envoy on Climate Action, surprised Nigerians on Saturday with the sudden announcement of his exit from office, citing family health issues. In a statement, he described the decision as “agonising” but necessary due to pressing medical matters within his immediate family.However, an FIJ investigation has uncovered that his exit was not voluntary but the result of a growing power struggle with Bayo Onanuga, the Special Adviser on Information and Strategy. Multiple senior sources within the presidency confirmed that Ngelale’s ousting was triggered by his long-standing conflict with Onanuga, which severely disrupted the presidential communications team.Behind the Scenes: A Power Struggle ExposedFollowing the election of President Bola Tinubu in 2023, tensions between Ngelale and Onanuga escalated. Ngelale, who had served as Senior Special Adviser to former President Muhammadu Buhari from 2019 to 2023, reportedly viewed himself as superior to Onanuga due to his earlier experience within government. But Onanuga, a veteran journalist and former Managing Director of the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), was appointed Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, creating confusion over overlapping roles in the presidential media structure.According to FIJ sources, civil servants struggled to determine who held the senior position, unlike during the Buhari administration, where clear distinctions existed between media appointees Femi Adesina and Garba Shehu. In the Tinubu administration, Ngelale’s and Onanuga’s titles as Special Advisers blurred these lines, leading to significant tension in the communications team.Ngelale’s Presidential BackingNgelale’s influence was strengthened by his close ties to Seyi Tinubu, the president’s son, and Femi Gbajabiamila, the Chief of Staff to the President. Sources indicated that Ngelale’s relationship with Tinubu’s inner circle made him feel “untouchable,” further intensifying his conflict with Onanuga.One presidential source shared that Ngelale was dismissed earlier in the week and that his announcement on Saturday was a carefully orchestrated move to avoid public embarrassment. “When he received the dismissal letter, he immediately began negotiating for a soft landing, which eventually led to the ‘resignation’ narrative,” the source revealed.The Long-Running Feud with OnanugaTensions between the two men began soon after the election, with Bayo Onanuga reportedly open to peace talks while Ngelale refused to engage. Even Minister of Information Mohammed Idris Malagi intervened, calling for multiple meetings to reconcile the two, but Ngelale repeatedly declined, citing scheduling conflicts.Onanuga, who was appointed months after other key advisers, operated without a dedicated office in the presidency until recently. Sources disclosed that Ngelale blocked efforts to allocate Onanuga an office, forcing him to “squat” in the office of Tunde Rahman, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity.Ngelale’s Tumbling Standing with the PresidentAccording to FIJ’s sources, the final straw came when the presidency’s media operations suffered due to the feud. Ngelale had instructed civil servants not to release any statements from Onanuga without his approval, which led to serious friction within the team. The presidency was reportedly informed that Ngelale’s attitude was hindering the administration’s ability to publicise its achievements.Additionally, Ngelale’s strained relationship with journalists and editors in Nigeria further undermined his role as a media adviser. Sources described him as “arrogant and disrespectful,” a perception that did not sit well with the president’s communication goals.Silence from Ngelale and OnanugaWhen contacted by FIJ, both Ajuri Ngelale and Bayo Onanuga declined to comment on the matter.…
