Labour leaders and workers are excited over a
presidential directive that all arrears of salaries
and allowances must be paid.
The Presidency on Monday directed Ministries,
Departments and Agencies (MDAs) to compile
the names of all public service employees who
are being owed arrears of salaries and
allowances within seven days so that they can
be paid without further delay.
The September 14 circular came from the
Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the
Federation (OHCSF). It immediately sent
members of the Association of Senior Civil
Servants of Nigeria (ASCSN) jumping for joy.
The names of those being owed are to be
compiled within seven days for them to be
paid “immediately”.
ASCSN Secretary-General Comrade Alade
Bashir Lawal, who broke the news in a
statement released in Abuja yesterday, praised
President Muhammadu Buhari for bringing
hope to thousands of public service employees
who are being owed arrears of salaries and
allowances for years.
The Presidency identified the outstanding
benefits as: salary arrears, promotion arrears,
1st 28 days allowance on transfer from post,
repatriation allowance, burial expenses, death
benefits and mandatory training of OHCSF in
2010.
The Presidency directed the MDAs to ensure
that each unpaid entitlement is accurate,
verifiable, with the name, designation, status
(serving or retired) and amount due to each
officer.
“The correct information should reach the
Office of the Head of Civil Service of the
Federation on or before Monday September
21, 2015,” the circular stressed.
Lawal recalled that in letters written to the
President since his election and assumption of
office, the union reminded him of the
outstanding salaries and allowances and
stressed the need for the government to pay
up to boost the morale not only of the affected
officers but also that of other teeming public
service employees.
He expressed confidence that as soon as the
lists are submitted to the Presidency, the
lingering arrears of salaries and allowances
would be paid “so as to put the ugly situation
behind and move forward”.
The union warned of dire consequences, which
may include trade union actions, if the MDAs
played politics with the Presidential directive.

I still can't understand why that Man in Osun has just the civil service as his only wahala. He looks like a thug and most disappointing is the fact that Osun people have resolved to be very comfortable with their Rural state.
