260m on lawmakers is not the problem... The problem is for them to pay the pensioners.

Going through the comments here, I'm tired of reading about Naija issue. The masses always read, make comments that's all. No body to ginger for his/her right. SMH

I don't know what they are doing this for!

They should buy their cars from the salaries given to them..... Why are they wasting our money.....in fact FFK and Falana, where are you guys

Oyetola is a clueless governor in osun state history.

We need to be careful about how the media tend to mislead with narrartives skewed to serve purposes other than progress. Do law makers deserve cars? Yes the law provides for it. Is the cars purchased for law makers affecting pension payment? Absolutely not. I spent the weekend in Osogbo and on Saturday this announcement was reiterated on radio.

Osun State Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola on Wednesday approved the sum of N500 million for payments of entitlements to retirees under the Contributory Pensions Scheme in the state. He also approved the immediate release of the sum to ensure that the retired workers get their dues. A statement issued by the state’s Head of Service, Dr. Oyebade Olowogboyega disclosed that the beneficiaries were picked on merit and monitored by the group’s executive committee.


The statement added names of beneficiaries will be made public through the public notice board of the State Pension Board today (Thursday). According to it, Governor Oyetola will present bond certificates to the beneficiaries next week Friday. Similarly, the governor also approved the release of N50 million to offset the gratuities of retired workers under the old pension scheme as well. “Under this category, two hundred and fifty (250) retirees have been picked on merit for payment and payment cheques will be given to the beneficiaries from Today (Thursday) February 6, 2020”.

“The list of the affected retirees are already made public on the Notice Boards of the State Pension Bureau and the Ministry of Information”. “The state pension Bureau appreciates Mr. Governor for being very sensitive to the plight of the pensioners and the workers generally”, it added. vanguard

Surprisingly, people will just go on with their daily activities as if nothing happened, which makes me wonder if an average Nigerian is mentally ok.

Nigeria politician and money are like 5&6

Pensioner's in that state shud do something about it.

Na to bribe them for loan approval I think ,useless leaders everywhere

So what do you want us to do about this. This is a local problem on a national forum. Ate there no people in that state to set fire to those cars.

As if they are not paying them salary.....shior

Shytehole paroles. Not suprised.

I don't see Nigeria becoming better till the world ends. The country is cursed. Everything is messed. It can never get better, it's impossible

Welcome to the zoo.


That's why i don't criticise yahoo boys.

These thieves are all there to loot and enrich themselves and their families, isn't it obvious that yahoo boys learnt from them?


These politicains are more or less yahoo boys too, yahooing state funds away.


If you have any opportunity to loot money, you better get sense and loot and never look back or else poverty will kill you.

I have said my own.

Some people will just read headline meant to inflame you without recourse to the whole article, without sentiments do we really have to make an issue out of anything? Which state government doesn't buy vehicles for its lawmakers in Nigeria? And just so you know I can beat my chest that the last and present administration in Osun is doing outstandingly well for the development of the state, both in infrastructure and education, I stay in the wealthier Ogun state and it can't hold a candle to the government projects in Osun. I'm less familiar with the North but the SE and SS are pretty much disappointing in terms of development. If indeed you read the script you'd see them acknowledging that there's a backlog to clear but they are doing their best.

All this annoying news is so tiring. What do you want us to do about it. Stop voting una no go hear word. Do you want us to go and tell dem not to buy cars or what.ok let me be a bit polite. How can we stop them fr buying the car. 2023 every body should stay at home. No voting. Let their children and love ones come back from abroad to vote. No vote una no go hear

Hmmmm nigerian politicians don’t care about any worker once they are in power they do what they like

what is wrong with lawmakers using marwa keke?

BlackfireX:
So you want the lawmakers to follow you and drag keke maruwa.





Good work APC governor

Everyday I wish I could start a revolution, but knowing how Nigerians don't care, I just have to suppress the thought

I imagine myself standing on a highway, doing my protest, I get shot like a chicken, definitely there'll be nobody with me cos we don't care, people just walk by saying, who send am?

Then you understand we don't deserve progress

Even Bible say, the kingdom suffereth violence, true believers taketh it by force

frog12:

Maybe he thinks they're special humans or super humans

Well, if wishes were horses, I'd choose to have Superman's powers, I'd kill too many politicians, you loot, don't bother spending it cos I'd kill you where you stand

I'd be evil Superman to those that rip this country apart , but then again, if only wishes were horses

You got it right

We probably should start setting their cars on fire, set their homes on fire too, chase them like the thieves they are, but who would stand with you

There's power in numbers but Nigerians are cowards

They will still put themselves in power

These are the people who want to pay Amotekun? Last last, Amotekun recruits will exploit the South West public

Alaye, my family stays in Osun for the most part I'm in Ogun and Lagos but I still spend a comsiderable amount of time in Osun. I've travelled a few places and yes I'm pretty sure of what I'm talking about!
