Gov. Mbah Approves Salary Increase for Customary Court Judges

Enugu State Governor, Peter Mbah, on Monday approved the upward review of salaries of the 459 customary court judges of the 153 customary courts across the state.
The Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on New Media, Dr Reuben Onyishi said that the review would take effect from January, in line with the N80,000 minimum wage as obtained in the state.
Onyishi noted that the review was a sequel to the high cost of living that compelled the increase in the national minimum wage of N70,000.
“This also followed a memo dated Nov. 25, 2024, addressed to the Governor by the Special Adviser to the Governor on Legal Matters, Mr Osinachi Nnajieze, in response to which Mbah graciously approved the review,” Onyishi said.
He said that the review also applied to the chairman and two members that constituted each of the 153 customary courts in the state, in which the salaries of the chairmen were moved from N42,989.76 to N92,989.76.
“Also, the salaries of the two members are increased from N39,736.18 to N89,736.18,” Onyishi said.
