#salary structure

The government has announced the 2026/27 public service salary structure, emphasizing its commitment to prioritizing salaries for scientists, teachers, and specialized technical professionals. This revised pay structure is outlined in Circular Standing Instruction (CSI) No. 3 of 2026, which has been issued by the Ministry of Public Service to guide salary implementation across various government sectors.

Hon. Sani Ahmed Toro, a former Secretary General of the Nigeria Football Association, has urged Nigerian football stakeholders to exert pressure on the National Sports Commission and the Nigeria Football Federation to implement the newly announced prize money and salary structure in the Nigeria Premier Football League. This call comes in light of recent developments regarding financial incentives in the league.
