Walson-Jack, who succeeded Folashade Yemi-Esan following her retirement on August 12, said the federal government is fully engaged in addressing salary disparities within the civil service.
She confirmed that the National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission (NSIWC) is actively working on the issue, adding that the presidential committee on salaries, of which she is a member, is committed to resolving all salary-related challenges.

“I am aware that the National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission (NSIWC) is working on it.
“I am also aware that there is a Presidential Committee on Salaries and being a member of that committee, I can assure you that it is working hard to deal with all the issues concerning salaries.”
Reflecting on her first 100 days, Walson-Jack emphasised the importance of continuity in the ongoing civil service reforms, particularly the Federal Civil Service Strategy and Implementation Plan 2021-2025 (FCSSIP 25).
