Nigerian Federal Workers Call on Tinubu to Clear N35,000 Wage Arrears

Nigerian federal workers are calling on Bola Ahmed Tinubu's government to address the delay in paying the outstanding three-month wage arrears of N35,000. The wage award was intended to provide temporary relief to workers facing financial challenges due to the government's economic reforms.

Despite partial payments made in staggered tranches, workers are still awaiting the complete settlement of their arrears. The workers' plea highlights the financial difficulties they are facing, with concerns raised about the government's commitment to fulfilling its obligations.

The Office of the Accountant General of the Federation confirmed the government's readiness to clear the arrears, emphasizing the importance of timely payments to support workers.
