The federal government has said that the N25,000 provisional wage increment announced for low-grade workers is now applicable to all levels of civil servants.
Femi Gbajabiamila, chief of staff (CoS) to President Bola Tinubu, announced the development on Sunday evening.
Speaking at the end of the four-hour meeting with the leaders of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) at the State House, Abuja, Gbajabiamila said the government team and the labour leaders have reached some resolutions.
The meeting was called by the federal government to avert the planned nationwide indefinite strike by the labour to protest against the removal of the petrol subsidy and other issues.
Before the resolutions were reached the labour had rejected the N25,000 provisional wage increment for low-grade workers announced by the president.
