Head of Civil Service of the Federation, Winifred Oyo-Ita stood up for the need for an upward review and increament of the civil servants monthly salary in the country.
Speaking at the 2017-2020 Federal Civil Service Strategy and Implementation Plan in Abuja on Thursday, she insisted that a salary raise would boost efficiency and productivity in the civil service as well as make workers incorruptible.
Addressing civil servants at the directorate level in Abuja, she said she was aware of the challenges confronting workers in the civil service due to their meagre salary.
She continued, “We need to launch a salary review of the civil service as a first step to enhance the value proposition of civil servants. We must increase salary. I am not saying this as a union leader but because I am aware of what workers go through,”
