His statement also implied that the case applies to both state and local government workers from Grade Level 1 to 8.
The Ministry also hinted of a decline in the federal allocation for the month of March, with the sum of N3,280,571,173:55 confirmed received.
The total inflow for the month of March is lower than the one for February which was N3,579,792,341:91, the statement added.
