Okorocha, Pay Us Our Five Months Salary, Cry IBC Workers by Ofunaofu: 2:14pm On Jun 21, 2016
Staff of Imo Broadcasting Corporation, IBC, the
mouth piece of the state government, has
commenced a three-day warning strike to
press home their demand for the payment of
five months arrears of salaries.
The workers, who were operating under the
canopy of Joint Action Committee, JAC,
effectively sealed the Corporation's premises,
as well as hung placards that aptly depicted
their grievance at the gate.
Some of the placards read: "Okorocha, pay us
our five months salary", "Okorocha, We are
tired of dishing out lies via IBC channels", "We
want our salary 100%", "We mourn our DG who
died of non-payment of 5-month salary" and
"Okorocha, We have reached our elastic limit".
One of the workers, who was clutching a copy
of Tueday's Vanguard, and pointing at Yinka
Odumakin's column, fumed that the Governor's
Chief Press Secretary, CPS, Mr. Sam
Onwuemeodo, had the gut to claim that all
civil servants had been paid up to April.
The CPS, who was replying to an earlier piece
written by Odumakin stated: "As I write, the
payment of April salary has begun.
In other words, the civil servants, teachers,
local government workers and so on, have
been paid up to the month of April. Which
means, only the month of May is outstanding,
since June has not ended. We stand to be
contradicted on these counter-claims".
The aggrieved staff then asked his colleagues
if it was "morally right for the CPS to mislead
the public, when IBC workers and other civil
servants and pensioners were suffering and
dying instalmentally".
Continuing, the staff linked their Director
General's death to the pressure arising from
non-payment of their five months salary,
stressing that "all we are begging government
is to pay us our earned salaries".
A unionist, who spoke to Vanguard Tuesday
warned that "the workers will go back to the
trenches if, by the close of work on Friday,
government refuses or neglects to pay our
salaries".
