Kogi : A Good Number of Civil Servants Not Paid Yet - Kogi Speaker

Contrary to reports making rounds that the Kogi State Government has fully offset the salary and pension arrears of workers, the Speaker Kogi State House of Assembly, Rt Hon Umar Ahmed Imam has called the attention of the State Governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello to civil servants in their numbers who have not been paid.
The Speaker made this known while welcoming the Governor and his entourage to the State House of Assembly for the presentation of the 2017 budget estimates.

While commending the Governor for beginning the payment of arrears, he stated that many are yet to access their salaries, urging him to stick to the promise of ensuring that all genuine civil servants are paid.

He said: "As the representatives of the people, we feel their pains and share in their suffering having to remain for months without income. It is our desire to urge Your Excellency to ensure, as earlier promised, that all genuine civil servants are paid."

He emphasized the need to augment on the state's internally generated revenue as a measure to reducing the harsh effect of the economic recession on the people of the state.

On the 2017 budget presentation, Hon Imam assured that the House will give adequate attention to its ratification and approval prior the commencement of the fiscal year.

He admonished Heads of Ministries, Boards, and Parastatals to be alive to their responsibility by responding promptly to their various oversighting Committees when invited to appraise and defend their budget estimates.
