Head of Service applauds Gov. Sani over salary increase
Governor Uba Sani has been commended for implementing the Consolidated Polytechnics and Colleges of Education Academic Staff Salary Structure(CONPCAS) and Consolidated Tertiary Institutions Salary Structure(CONTEDISS) for staff of Kaduna State-owned tertiary institutions.
In a statement on Tuesday, the Head of Service, Jummai Bako, who made the commendation, stated that the new adjustment marks a significant milestone in the administration’s commitment to staff welfare.
The head of service who acknowledged that staff of state-owned institutions had started receiving salary alerts, added that the salary increase would boost staff morale.
According to her, the entire workforce extends heartfelt gratitude to the governor for his visionary leadership, responsive governance, and for fulfilling his promise to the academic community.
‘’His action has once again demonstrated that he is a leader who is ever willing to engage constructively, to deliver lasting solutions to matters of staff welfare.
‘’This bold and compassionate decision reflects the governor’s integrity, empathy, and unwavering dedication to good governance, social justice, and sustained harmony between government and the workforce,’’ she added.
Mrs Bako however called on the benefitting staff to improve their productivity to reciprocate the governor’s dedication to their welfare and the revamping of the education sector.
Recall that the governor approved the implementation of 70 per cent of the 2024 CONPCASS/CONTEDISS salary structure for staff of state-owned tertiary institutions, effective October 2025 last week.
In a joint press conference, the union leaders had commended his “listening leadership, transparency, and unwavering commitment to workers’ welfare and educational advancement in Kaduna State.”
