I don't know which is more disgusting--that people are being nonchalantly owed salaries in arrears OR that otherwise supposedly enlightened folks cannot see beyond APC/PDP in this war between the rich and the poor.

I believe that Nigerians deserve all the hardship that come their way. They are practically irredeemable.

Osun is a civil servant state and the people there are poor, I'm not saying this to spite any region or party, im just saying the truth

I was in Osun when aregbe introduced opon imo, if not for politics, I can tell you Osun don't need such in the next 20 years

If you want to know how poor Osun state is, just let nysc stop sending corpers to public schools and you see What aregbe is covering.

There are schools that don't have up to three teachers, there are lots of schools with no desk and chairs, the sad part is the media won't report this.

I don't want to talk about the school uniform fraud or merging of schools that brought untold hardship on the students and poor families

Why the Focus only Osun, why Some states are even owing 9months Salary? Abia State for example paid it's last salaries on November 30th 2014. Why can't we expose all of them? Why in a 18 Cans of worms, we Choose only one can to open?

The following States are owing Six Months and above:
Benue State
Kogi State:
Platue State
Bauchi State
Imo State
Abia State
Osun State
Enugu( Parastals are owed 12month arrears)


Read Below:

The Punch reports that Abia, Akwa Ibom, Bauchi, Benue, Cross River, Ekiti, Imo, Jigawa, Kano, Katsina, Kogi. Ogun, Ondo, Osun, Oyo, Plateau, Rivers and Zamfara owe their employees salary arrears of at least 6 months, citing a task force report by the Nigeria Labour Congress.

According to the paper, “The report of the Task Force of the NLC revealed that while some of the states had paid salaries of workers up to date, they were owing arrears of pensions running into months.

The states owing salaries or pensions are Abia, Akwa Ibom, Bauchi, Benue, Cross River, Ekiti, Imo, Jigawa, Kano, Katsina, and Kogi.

Others are Ogun, Ondo, Osun, Oyo, Plateau, Rivers and Zamfara states.


The report says that Adamawa, Anambra, Bayelsa, Borno, Delta, Edo, the FCT, Gombe, Kaduna, Kwara, Lagos, Nasarawa, Niger, Sokoto and Taraba are not indebted to their workers.

The report paints a bleak picture of civil service workers across the country. Take Abia for example. The report states that it has not paid the salaries of workers at the State Teaching Hospital for nine months.

The state is also said to be owing workers of the Hospital Management Board eight months’ salary; Abia State Universal Basic Education Board, six months; Abia State Polytechnic, five months; local government workers, four months; and teachers, three months’ salary arrears.

Enugu may have paid the salaries of civil servants till date, but parastatals are owed 12 months’ salaries and pension and gratuity payments haven’t been issued since 2010.

For other states, the picture is a sorry one. Osun, on average, owes six months’ in salary and pension payments; Plateau, six months in salaries and seven months in pension entitlements; Benue, five months of salaries and four months of pension benefits; Kogi, four months in arrears of pension and salary payments; and Oyo, which owes three months in salaries and between five and 11 months of pension payments.

States which are likely to owe salaries and pension of workers well into the commencement of the incoming administration’s tenure on May 29 include Ekiti, which is already in arrears of state employee salaries for three months; Jigawa, which owes judiciary workers a month in salary arrears; Ondo, which owes a month’s salary and pension payments, while Ogun also owes a month of salary payments but a mind-boggling 52 months of unremitted pension deductions to the Pension Fund Administration.

While Zamfara has paid workers’ salaries up to date, the salaries of workers recruited in 2014 have not been paid.

The NLC Task Force also fingered Rivers State for owing one month’s worth of pay and three months worth of pension payments while Kano is yet to pay newly employed teachers for three months.

The report was silent on the status of Yobe and Ebonyi on the ground that “there was no information on them.”

It is because the hypocrites are fighting an ethnic war. Osun state governor's allocation in the last 5 years he has been governor is not up to what Akwa ibom earns in 10 months, yet he has projects to show off it, although he overreached himself with too much freebies. it was not going to be sustainable, even Rochas free education is not sustainable. I still give it to the APC governors who can partially justify being broke


Pls ask yourself is he the only person whose allocation was reduced. Common kwara is not indepted.
I think you need to be educated.
Ogun paid a percentage of its worker.
Kogi paid certain percentage to its workers. So what is stopping Aregbesola. Not even a month. He looted , wasted the money simple. So what of if he saves for 3 months won't he pay for one month. Eeebina

I can speak for my ministry in Abia. As bad as T.A. Orji is, he didn't owe us any months salary. Though the salary may be late, yet he still paid it.
And I can also speak for Pensioners from the primary school, they have been paid upto February 2015.
.
I cannot speak for other ministries or parastatals in the state.

These are, certainly, not the best of times for civil servants in Abia State. While thousands of them were sacked because they are not indigenes of the state, those who are ‘fortunate’ to remain in service are not paid as and when due. Worse still, those who dare to demand the several months of salary arrears they are being owed are harassed, intimidated and/or summarily dismissed. The latest case involves a lec­turer at the College of Education (Tech­nical), Arochukwu (names withheld by us) who was fired recently for ‘insulting’ the state governor by appealing to him to facilitate the payment of their backlog of salary arrears through a text message. The said lecturer was interrogated and asked to beg the governor so that the matter would end. But to his utter shock, he was fired a few days later.

However, workers of Bende Local Gov­ernment Area recently dared the powers-that-be, as it were and took to the streets of Umuahia, the capital of the state to protest against the introduction of a unique formula of sharing the statutory allocation accruing to local governments in the state by ballot­ing.

According to the workers numbering over 500, the ‘Abia formula’ has created confusion in the running of the local govern­ment areas in the state. They also protested against the non-payment of four months ar­rears of salary owed them in 2012.

The unique formula

In October last year, the Abia State gov­ernment introduced a new system of sharing allocation from the federation account to lo­cal government areas in the state. A source explained it thus: “It is known as ‘balloting’. What the new system entails is that when­ever the state government receives local governments’ allocation from the federation account, the normal Joint account Commit­tee ((JAC) meeting would be convened.

“At the said JAC meetings, lots would be drawn with ‘yes’ and ‘no’ written on them and put in a ballot box. Then the transi­tion committee chairmen would be called upon to pick. Any local government which is lucky and the TC chairman picks ‘yes’, would get money for the workers’ sal­ary for the given month but those that were not lucky and their chairmen picked ‘No’, would not be paid.”

The recent Bende workers protest was as a result of the JAC meeting held for the shar­ing of money for the salary of the council workers for the month of December, 2014.

“The TC chairman of Bende LGA ,whose workers were still being owed four months’ salary in 2012, was said to have picked ‘No’ for the month of December. This simply translated that if they were not lucky during the next balloting which comes up in March this year, their December 2014 salary would not be paid even in May,” the source stated.

So, frustrated by the development, the workers matched from the Bende Local Government headquarters to Government House, Umuahia with the intention of seeing Gov Theodore Orji to intimate him of their suffering. But security men could not allow the workers who carried placards and sang songs of sorrow access to the seat of power.

One of the affected workers, who craved anonymity, lamented: “I have never seen this type of arrangement anywhere before. Local government workers have suffered so much under this government. The past ad­ministration in the state never owed us even one month salary, but now we are owed up to four to five months arrears of salary de­spite the fact that we now have enhanced allocation.

“What we cannot understand is this intro­duction of giving allocation accruing from the federation account through balloting when, in fact, funds allocated to each coun­cil by the Federal Government was enough to pay workers salary.

“We are talking about our December 2014 salary at this time and as we speak, we are not sure it will be paid in April. Our counterparts in other states were paid before Christmas while we celebrated on empty stomachs.”

Another worker said: “We’ve not been paid our December 2014 salary, not to talk of January salary. And from the look of things, we may not be paid the December salary by April because our council picked ‘No’ and our TC chairman is not helping matters by his lackadaisical attitude towards the plight of the workers”.

The workers are also demanding four months of arrears of salary they said they were being owed in 2012. In 2012, council workers embarked on a similar protest and carried a coffin round the streets of Umua­hia, praying that those responsible for non-payment of their salaries should die.

Investigations revealed that the new ‘Abia formula’ also applies to ministries and parastatals in the state. The result is that while some are owed for three months, their counterparts have not received their salaries for six months.

But how did the state get to this ugly pass? It was learnt that the state government is in­debted to a bank, which receives its money at source, immediately the monthly alloca­tions are made. So, according to sources, the state is virtually run with internally gener­ated revenue.

A teacher in the state also alleged that they were being short-changed in terms of promotion and the entitlements that go with it. Hear her: “If you are promoted in September this year for example, they will start paying your entitlement in January next year. By so doing, your entitlements will go into somebody’s pocket for four months. And instead of promotion after three years as it ought to be, you will be promoted after four years. So, one year benefits will be lost. In Abia, head you lose, tail you lose.”
