Governor Peter Mbah of Enugu State has approved the upward review of the salaries of the 459 customary court judges of the 153 customary courts across Enugu State effective January 2025, in line with the N80,000 minimum wage as obtains in the state.
The upward review applies to the chairman and two members that constitute each of the 153 customary courts in the state, ranging from individual rate of N42,989.76 to N92,989.76 for the chairmen and N39,736.18 to N89,736.18 for the members, respectively.
The review was sequel to the high cost of living that compelled the increase in the national minimum wage of N70,000 and Gov. Mbah?s increase of the minimum wage in Enugu State to N80,000.This also followed a memo dated 25th November, 2024, addressed to the Governor by the Special Adviser to the Governor on Legal Matters, Barr.
