The Federal Government is to pay the outstanding five months N35,000 wage award arrears to workers.
The Office of the Accountant General of the Federation (OAGF) made this known in a statement issued by Mr Bawa Mokwa, the Director of Press and Public Relations.
Mokwa said that the Federal Government had earlier paid five months wage award in instalments.
He said that the outstanding arrears would be paid in installments of N35,000 per month for five months.
