Sen Ben Murray Bruce: Pay Your Workers And Stop Excuses by sholly007(op): 3:28pm On May 14, 2015
Sen Ben Murray Bruce To Governors.

The owner of Silverbird Television and Senator elect, Mr Ben Murray Bruce have advised state governments that are still owning their workers months of salaries in arrears, to pay them and stop making unnecessary excuses.
He berated the governors for blaming the Federal government over their inability to pay their workers after they have collected all their Federal Allocations to date.
“If I am unable to pay over 1,000 of my staff in Silverbird, will I blame my father?”, Sen Bruce queried.
Majority of the state governors are owing their workers over 6 months wages. States like Osun, Ogun, Oyo, Imo, Edo are the worst culprit, as they wasted their Federal allocation on the Presidential elections and funding party members in some other elections.
The huge debt profile of some of the state governments makes it difficult for them to be given loan from any Nigerian bank or overseas.
Early this week Kabiru Aregbesola, the son of Osun state Governor was arrested at the Departure Lounge of the Muritala Mohammaed, Lagos with Currencies totaling over $900,000, while his father is owing workers about 5 months salaries..

This is really bad of d state government after collecting their federal allocations yet they won't pay workers and at the end they will put d blame on d federal government and they end up selling a lie to d public then d public starts blaming d federal government for d failure of our state government!
When will our politicians stop buying votes and when will our people stop selling four years of progress and good governance for a mere bag of rice and a few naira?
When will we wake up and hold our local government and state government responsible for their respective failures?
Our state governors and law makers keep on earning more than they deserve yet there are children in d street that can't even eat a good meal once in a day
We have to stand up for our rights, if not they will keep taking us for granted!
Workers are not paid salaries for months, same thing with our pensioners
This has to stop
