Ebonyi Governor David Umahi has directed that all civil servants in the State be paid their November and December salaries together before December 10, 2022.
The Governor also directed that all civil servants should be paid a bonus salary of N15,000 each in addition to their two months salary paid together.
The information was contained in a statement by the Media Aide to the governor, Cooks Oko.
The statement quoted the Accountant General of the State, Emeka Nwankwo as having confirmed receiving the governor’s directive and putting plans in motion to meet the deadline.
The Governor, according to the statement, noted that the gesture was to give Civil servants enough time and resources to plan ahead of the Christmas and New year celebrations.
The statement said the directive is in keeping with the State Government’s social contract with the Civil Servants to ensure that they enjoy the holiday season despite the late arrival of FAAC allocations to the State in recent months.
