Labour leaders in Osun State have asked Governor Rauf Aregbesola
to henceforth start paying salaries of all categories of workers in
full.
The Chairman of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Mr. Jacob Adekomi and
Chairman, Joint Public Service Negotiating Council, Mr. Bayo Adejumo,
made this demand at a press conference in Osogbo on Saturday.
They said labour leaders did not sign any agreement with the
government that they would be collecting half salaries contrary to what
some former commissioners and government appointees have been saying.
Workers from grade level 01-07 are being paid in full while those
from level 08 and above have been receiving half salaries since July
2015 but the NLC said they did not sign this agreement with the
government.
The labour leaders blamed some of the former aides of the governor
for plunging the state into the financial crisis It was facing now
because of their alleged recklessness.
The NLC chairman said, “Our demands are that government should
start to to pay our 2014 bonus which was factored into the bailout
given to the state. Thanks for reading
