Well, I've seen this coming.
Despite the fact that I like the development we experienced in the current administration in my dear state and I would love its continuity, the timing of this news is totally wrong. I wonder what the administration took the workers for. What is the assurance that we won't experience slashed salary when their party eventually emerge in the coming election.

I was considering opposition party in my state before but they cut my expectation short the moment they present dancing senator as their flag bearer..... Still digging into other party though. At this level, we need to think with our brain before choosing who to vote for and not with our mouth......don't sell your vote.
God Bless Nigeria
God Bless United State of Osun.

When will Ekiti people enjoy this privilege too

did you not read that he his owing them arrears ? Many months for that matter and he only started paying full month from July ,mind you this is just a gimmick and excuse to rig osun elections.
Even if fayose had borrowed money from outside he would have put ekiti state in more debt and APC would still have rigged ekiti massively using federal might.

No government have taken Nigerians for fools than the broomstick party.

Citizens of Osun, you can decide to be the fool here or tale charge next month. Dont let Tinubu and his boys decieve you, they dont care about your welfare o. This money is released just to pacify your minds for election and once that is cleared, it is back to square 1.

again, dont be decieved..

Point of correction.
Fayose failed because he was very wise in his own counsel.. Those people that worked for him in 2014 he came to power, he suddenly became an emperor to all of them.
I am from ekiti state and I know what I am talking about. If fayose had brought everybody under PDP together, and he did not allow arrogance and impunity to take over his life PDP would have won. He never allow others to contribute , he does what ever pleases him, that is why some of his loyalists left the party for him because if his overbearing altitudes, now his time is almost up.
Nothing more . Fayose is an embodiment of greed , arrogance, lies , propaganda, deceit, pomposity, etc.[/s]

then vote for APC again, at least that's a guarantee of another eight years of half salary.....continuity of half salary is good for osun state, half salary is equivalent to nothing but suffering so let's vote them again... Nonsense is Aregbe not also known for his dancing? why are you not calling him "dancing governor"
how does dancing relates to competency, so because a person likes dancing it means a person is not competent.
if you don't vote him, there are other candidates like Adeoti and Omisore.. but I guess you probabbly prefer continuity of half salary and not to talk of 18 months of full salary that will probably never be paid.. we are our own problem.

The Chairman, Nigeria Labour Congress, Osun State chapter, Mr Jacob Adekomi, has said that the Governor Rauf Aregbesola administration has started paying full salaries to all categories of workers in the state.

The NLC chairman said this in a telephone interview with our correspondent in Osogbo on Wednesday.

Adekomi said local government workers and primary school teachers had started receiving payment alerts from their banks, adding that he had also received an alert of full salary for the month of July.

He said, “The state government has started paying us full salaries. But we are waiting for the payment of arrears of the balance of modulated salaries. We have already given them a 21-day ultimatum and we hope they will pay the arrears before the expiration of the ultimatum.

“Negotiation will soon commence and we are waiting for them to start paying us the arrears. But I can confirm that they have started paying us full salaries and I received the alert yesterday.”

But the Secretary of the 2011/2012 Forum of Retirees in the state, Mr Sola Olojode, said pensioners had yet to start receiving full pensions.

He said retirees went to the Head of Service, Dr Oyebade Olowogboyega, and were assured that they would be paid full pension for the month of July.

He said this while speaking with our correspondent on the telephone.

Olojede said, “We went to the Head of Service two days ago and he assured us that we would be paid full pension for July. We will make noise again if we are not paid as they promised.

“He also assured us that those retirees whose N100, 000 cheques given to them bounced should present the cheques again. The cheques of N100, 000 out of millions of naira gratuities bounced. Can you imagine that? The cheques were given to teachers that retired through Teachers and Establishment and Pension Office.”

Meanwhile, Olowogboyega commended Aregbesola for the double promotions they received without examinations and the employment of thousands of youths into the Osun Youth Empowerment Scheme programme.

He also lauded the governor for the on-going conversion of workers from one cadre, adding that refurbishment of office equipment and necessary items for effective service delivery would be done soon.

Olowogboyega stated that arrears and leave bonuses would be paid, adding that the new promotion status of each worker would be reflected and not the former level, while the financial benefits attached to the promotion status would be fulfilled.
