Outstanding wages: Adamawa lawmakers give Nyako 2 weeks ultimatum
Adamawa State House of Assembly, on Monday, gave two weeks ultimatum to Governor Murtala Nyako to remit the deducted money from the May salaries paid to civil servants in the state.
The House, however, summoned the Commissioner for Finance and the Accountant-General of the state, to appear on the floor of the House, to justify what the House described as indiscriminate deductions from salaries of workers in the state.
The ultimatum was part of the resolutions passed by the lawmakers, while sitting on Monday, querying why workers’ salaries should be deducted without cogent reasons or notifications to the workers, or otherwise declared if there was a new tax regime for the workforce.
The lawmakers also directed the executive arm of government to as a matter of urgency, refund the deductions made by government from the salaries of the state in their May, 2014 salaries on or before Friday, May 30, 2014.
