Kogi Set To Clear Workers Salary Arrears by ManirBK(op): 1:03pm On Aug 19, 2018
The Kogi state government is set to clear outstanding salary arrears of workers in the state within the next three months. The state commissioner for Finance, Asiwaju Ashiru Idris who disclosed this also hinted that workers and pensioners claiming to have been owed for upwards of 20 months salaries and pensions were those who are not on the cleared list and no longer in government pay roll. Idris described as malicious claims that government was owing workers and pensioners more than 20 months salary arrears. “All the cleared civil servants whose names appeared on pay roll have received their salaries up till April 2018, while the pensioners have received their pensions up till February this year”. Commissioner Ashiru stated. He lamented that those civil servants claiming that state government is owing as much as 20 months are not being fair to the government noting that Governor Yahaya Bello was so magnanimous by pardoning several workers after the appeal, stating he had assured them that their outstanding salary would be paid in due course.
The commissioner also admitted that the debt profile was N102 billion, stressing that this comprises of the N33billion debt inherited from the previous administration, 3 months unpaid salaries from last administration, unpaid salaries, pension, unpaid leave allowances and so on. Idris said that government had mapped out plans to ensure that all the outstanding salaries of workers and pensioners are paid in the next 90 days.https://leadership.ng/2018/08/19/kogi-set-to-clear-workers-salary-arrear/

Bro I disagree with this

Salary is a must to pay

They worked for it

It’s not an achievement on anyone’s part

Bello is a failure

I still weep for Kogi workers cry I wonder why a governor will be lying in broad day light that he is nlt owing salaries for over a year now...God, please whatever Kogi workers did to deserve this kind of Governor, forgive them and help do the needful.

if Ahmed Fatai is the worst governor in history, then Yahaya Bello is the useless governor in human history. while some are paying salaries, he is also set to pay salaries which he owed the workers but he can pay #10,000 to corpers in camp. wicked governor

Aregbesola have started to pay full salary.

Yahaya Bello is planning to pay salary arrears.

Somebody who abandoned his poisonous barbeque business for N30 per post on NL said it is good development.

If these people knew that they could pay this salaries, why take the people through the hardship that has destroyed families and turned wives to augment their husbands income through prostitution? Children have dropped out of school as a result...

Take your destinies in your hand people. Look after yourselves and let Buhari who has feathered his own nests and whose children can suddenly afford N50m bikes to give way for someone with better and fresh ideas to come in.

It is only a mad man that does the same thing and expects a different result.
