Jubilations As Gov. Ikpeazu Orders 'Payment Of Salary' To All Abia Workers

By Wisdom Nwedene

Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State has ordered payment of salary to all the State workers, Igbere TV reports.

Ikpeazu while making this known via a statement made available to IGBERE TV, said
additional 1 or 2 months arrears will be paid to the Health Management Board (HMB), secondary school, teachers, College of Education and ABSUTH.

According to him, the payment of arrears will continue in January 2021.

Ikpeazu, however, insisted that staff verification using BVN & bank details must happen before these funds are released to real & authenticated staff only.

The statement reads in parts,

"The issue of wage bill management is a knotty problem in our clime especially with regard to agencies & parastatals who ordinarily are supposed to be self sustaining in terms of revenue generation & prompt service delivery! However the reality is that these agencies indulge in over staffing & poor fiscal procedures leading to bloated wages which their subventions cannot carry!"

"But in the spirit of a new Abia, we've decided to embark on a systematic replacement of managers of these agencies found wanting in the discharge of their duties, while we support strategies aimed at improving IGR!"

"Meanwhile, I've ordered the payment of salary to ALL Abia workers starting from yesterday, the 21st while additional 1 or 2 months arrears will be paid to the Health Management Board (HMB), secondary school, teachers, College of Education and ABSUTH ! The payment of arrears will continue in January 2021."

"However, I insist that staff verification using BVN & bank detailsmust happen before these funds are released to real & authenticated staff only. We must arrest the bleeding!!!"

"It is important to underline the fact that all the workers in our ministries, departments and agencies (MDAs), making up more than 70% of our State workforce, received December 2020 salary yesterday. Our focus is now to solve the issues around our state parastatals that ordinarily should make revenue and use same to pay their workers."

My broda me sef weak.

This country keeps reaching a "new level of low" daily and it gets sad every time. Even the Holy Bible says every labourer is due to his wages, an people are celebrating payment of salaries. Nawa oh

Nice gesture especially at a time like this. Christmas don set

People jubilating for being paid for their sweat and hard labour?!

Only in Naija.

Anyways, on behalf of Abians, thank you very much Mr Ikpeazu ooooo,
Atleast, it will be a Merry Merry Christmas.

Up Abia State!

What is the jubilation for, is he not suppose to pay salary? Some things are rights not favour.

If you ask us, na who we go ask ooo

frankmoney:
Imagine ... Jubiliating because of your own money

Hmmmmmmm, this is deep!

Jubilation for una entitlement? Which kind leaders we get sef?

They have weaponised hardship in Nigeria.

This reminds me of that story by Stallion where the chicken’s feather was plucked alive and the chicken returned to the same person who did it because of hunger just to be fed a few corn.

Some news are possible ONLY in 9ja.

This is one of them!

You celebrate for getting paid after working.

This is how bad the country is

As though they didn’t work for it?
I thought I heard BCA radio say times without number that the governor is not owning any worker or pensioners. So what did he order for?

So paying people their salary now calls for jubilation. There was a country.

Why should there be jubiliation just because staff are to be paid their salaries...under normal circumstances staff do not need to beg for their salary!

Wow. What 'wonderful' achievements recorded in Abia.

What is the jubilation for, is he not suppose to pay salary? Some things are rights not favour.

OSUs and mediocrities...




Jubilation on top una entitlement.



Shame!
