Hehehehehehehe if is osun state now,wailers will start flexing their muscle on aregbesola Useless people,as if aregbe dey print money for him house.

ogundeleai:
What I still don't understand is why those state that additionaly received 13% derivation owe workers salary and virtually put development of their state to the halt.
Whether economy downfall or not state like Bayelsa still collect an average of 4bn each month with less than 1m population.
I hope people should now understand base on development from Bayelsa, why aregbesola with 55m allocation and over 3m population unable to pay salary.

these hypocrites know the truth but chose to avoid it instead they use their hypocrisy and hatred to cover it and keep bashing Aregbesola

SaiBuharii:
Vote for change, Bayelsans refused. We do not know whether if we change, things will get better but to know, we have to Change.

See this one, which of your changing states in the West isn't owing at the moment. And what about your govt at the centre that is even owing corpers and Aso Rock security allowee

Goke7:
Why are the wailers avoiding a thread like this, I am yet to see things like ' enjoy the change' or 'is this the change we voted for'

Wailers where una dey o

they won't show their face hereeee.... Wailing wailers, I believe they are in a corner now wailing

Bayelsa government should do something, 2 months salary in this hard time is not a joke.

ril19:
haha.... Osun and Imo workers will soon follow suit

Believe you me all the States and even FG are owing. That some State workers chose to keep quiet doesn't suggest otherwise.. For example most people didn't know this

Rivers has not paid beyond January. Workers are owed 3 months here.

The only people being owed by FG are corpers.

WIKE will deny this and so we will believe him and say the people lie.

hemucology:
Igbo come and defend ur self now

Sincerely speaking it is only 2 Nigerian states- Lagos and Anambra are meeting their monthly bills and also doing infrastructures. Nigerian states should think out of the box!

Twinator Ben Murray Bruce will not tweet about this & donate his allowance to them but he elected to do so in Osun a bid to ridicule Aregbesola.
Oga Bruce, charity begins at home.

otokx:

I doubt if he will. The annoying thing is the claim of verification since November last year up to April 2016. I think its better these Governors come out plain and renegotiate on sustainable salary structure instead of this hide and seek game with civil servants.

when your son was sharing millions of dollars from the federation account last year to pastors, imams, traditional rulers, even to the association of witches and wizards so that he could win the election, y'all were jubilant, jumping upandan like lice in a bushy hair.

see ya life now?

Peter Obi prevented Anambra from joining the 18k minimum wage thereby leaving Anambra with the least wage bill. Anambra minimum wage is 11.5k while workers had salaries increased by 10k instead of based on grade level percentage. Thats what Okorocha wanted to do but resisted by NLC. The Imo State present firmula of 70:30 is another alternative other States can employ so that workers can work out their own salary structure with the funds available.

Imagine what one of the government official he's saying so sad

otokx:

That's the reality of the day. But FG will always pay.

****
Anambra is among the states paying the highest even recently Obiano increased it by another 15%.

Stop giving excuses why imo state is worthless and broke thereby owing several months of unpaid salaries despite the FG bailout that has since been squandered by the fat incompetent Okorocha.

Imo state is currently the worst amongst states as the state is an ordinary civil service state and when civil servants are not paid as it is right everything and everyone becomes stranded. There nothing good to emulate from imo state.

It was 10k minimum wage and Obiano increased it to 11.5k which still falls short of 18k as obtained in other States.

I know you can do anything just to justify why imo state is today worthless.

I have cousins in Anambra civil service and I know that their minimum salary is 19+ and above. And I know that they are paid every 25th of every month.

May God bless our nation good Leaders

Abagworo i told you that you thrives on lies no wonder no one takes you seriously because of the incompetence of Okorocha and backwardness of imo state.

Now read this to the end and cure your ignorance and bitterness and frustration.

The report is from 2011 when minimum wage was being addressed nationwide. With the recent increments made by Obiano, Anambra is presently among the highest paid nationwide.

herbie27:
Get some sense.

What's up with the current economic situation?, has allocation been given to states?.

You need to get some Senses! Must states be relying on federal govt ? With all the oil money the state got in time past what did they do with it ? Even if the governor don't pay for 10months you will blame Buhari ! Abeg wake up

seunmsg:
Where is Ben Bruce, the common sense senator when you need him? He's busy tweeting trash on twitter while his constituents are begging to survive. When will he donate his salary to help the suffering Bayelsa worker?

If this is about Osun state, wailers will descend heavily on the thread calling Aregbesola so many names. Oil rich Bayelsa has not paid workers since November 2015 and nobody seems to be concerned.

Thank you. One thing Nairaland and political events of the past 9 years has shown me is that there is always a malevolent focus on anything to do with the SW from many of our brothers and sisters in the SE and SS even as we have always been fair, diplomatic and objective towards them, their struggles and agitation. As prominent examples, no one fought more than Femi Falana to keep Ken Saro-Wiwa alive when Abacha decided he had to die. No region fought harder, as a collective unit, to see GEJ sworn in as acting President when Turai Yar Adua, Abba Ruma, Aondoakaa et al held Nigeria hostage while our former president, Yar Adua, was comatose. The Wole Soyinka that SE and SS youths take pleasure to insult today marched the streets to insist on the swearing-in of GEJ.

We told them then that the Osun situation was a Nigerian situation that would gradually be the lot of many States in our nation but they would not accept this. They preferred to make it a SW problem to try and use opportunistically in their unrelenting effort to show the region and her people in a negative light. Now oil rich Bayelsa, with extra 13% derivation income, is struggling. Because the APC is now tagged "Yoruba Party" they even made the salary debacle a PDP vs APC issue with moronic arguments about who is paying workers and who is not without understanding that all States will struggle in the end if low oil price persist. Is Bayelsa not a PDP State?

I say it a lot lately that Nigerians are the biggest problem of Nigeria and a development like this proves it. Bayelsans should take their leaders to task because this is one of the States that should be better placed to survive austere conditions due to her income to population ratio. If we cannot hold our leaders to account and prefer to only see the wrongdoing of leaders from ethnic groups different to ours then problems will creep up on us and overwhelm our lives as is happening throughout Nigeria today. Bayelsans would have seen this coming if the task of holding their leaders accountable is uppermost on their minds and the biggest priority for them. Nigerians should focus on and tackle the misrule in their own backyards first as a matter of urgency instead of obsessing about what is going on in the State and region of others. that is what will liberate our country in this economic downturn.

So how is this different from what I wrote? Though a Government side of the story.

Having salaries increased by 10k is not equivalent to percentage increase by salary scale ie 18k starting point. Try to study me and understand that I am way very intelligent and informed.

where does the oil money go to?. Federation account.

Wake up!.

Study an ugly jobless old man that lies for free?

Did you read this report below? Read it properly and show us where you saw anything other than minimum wage bill of 18k as against the lies you have peddle from time..

It is on record that with the recent increments done by Obiano, Anambra is presently among the highest paid in the country.

Senator Bruce........speak

Olukologia:
I guess de governors are now using IGR. Because those excess allocation isn't coming anymore. Even de IGR isn't up to anything. God help them o

bayelsa is excluded from this list...they have allocations from excess crude cash....it is no excuse...compare osun who depends solely on allocation

Will love to do that if only u will buy it and send to me, Thanks in advance am waiting.

OKKO:
I work in the sate, I was paid my January salary last week. Govt. is owing me 2 months not 5. However, lack of economic direction by FG has worsen the situation. Devalue Naira so that states get more allocation and pay staff. I have been parking in fuel cue since 3 days now. The line never reach me.

now na FG u go blame....pls explain why FG shd devalue the naira.....bayelsa is an oil rich state with 1.7m pple and enuf bailout fund from FG....IGR dey too...what else is stopping the gov?

Quakertellicus1:


I won't blame the Bayelsans refusal of APC for their predicament. Rather, the fact is, oil prices have dropped ,meaning that states no longer have the fat allowances from Abuja....so many states are broke now.

I guess that many states never did get creative with funding at all. And let's be frank...state civil services are bloated with a lot of unnecessary staff.

For Bayelsa to survive....high taxes, harshness on corruption and sacking excess civil servants might be the way forward.

oga forget that talk....when it was Osuns turn no1 wanted to listen to him and this is a state with little or no way to generate IGR...Bayelsa has fuel proceeds, less population and more.....come off d excuse
