Ogun state government has refuted a report listing it among states grappling with unpaid salaries, saying , it was not owing any worker in the state.
The government in a statement signed by Secretary to the State Government,Taiwo Adeoluwa claimed that Senator Ibikunle Amosun-led administration had never owed workers salary since inception.
The statement reads: “Our attention has been drawn to a story published newspapers titled: “18 states bankrupt, can’t pay salaries.’’ The said erroneous report lists Ogun State as one of the 18 states.
“We hereby state without any equivocation that since inception of this administration till date, Ogun State does not owe its workers. We are indeed one of the few States in the country which , despite the dwindling Federal allocation have consistently been paying their workers’ salary as at when due.
“For the avoidance of doubt, workers in Ogun State have received their May 2015 salary.’’ Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
