“As we close the year, our administration will pay a 13th month basic salary to Adamawa State civil servants,” Governor Fintiri wrote. “This is a simple way of saying thank you for your service and easing the season for your families.”
The decision comes at a time when many families are grappling with economic pressures, and is expected to bring relief and festive cheer to thousands of workers across the state.
Observers say the move underscores the Fintiri administration’s commitment to workers’ welfare and morale, reinforcing its message that the contributions of civil servants remain central to governance and service delivery in Adamawa State.
For many workers, the announcement has turned the end of the year into an early celebration—one marked by gratitude, relief, and renewed confidence in the government’s pledge to stand by its workforce.
