Otti approves new salary structure for Abia assembly workers

Abia State Governor Alex Otti has officially approved the implementation of the Consolidated Legislative Salary Structure (CONLESS) for eligible workers at the Abia State House of Assembly and the Assembly Service Commission, starting from January 2027. This decision, made on November 11, 2026, marks Abia as the first state in the South-East to adopt the new salary structure for parliamentary workers.

The approval comes after recommendations from the Committee on CONLESS, which examined the need to address remuneration concerns and improve conditions of service for legislative employees. Despite this approval, the government has not disclosed the new salary scale, the number of beneficiaries, or the financial impact on the state.
