According to reports, Governor Bello of Kogi State has began paying workers 4 months arriers. It was alleged that the Governor inherited the debt while taking over governance from the previous admnistration.
In a statement by the media aide to the Governor, Mr Moses Okafor, He said, “Though the screening exercise was
painful for a while but it has finally been completed. I can assure you
that Governor Yahaya Bello is committed to making good his promises to
pay all genuine workers and pensioners in the state on or before Dec.
20.
“Any genuine civil servant and pensioner
who has not been paid would be paid including all the outstanding
allowances and remuneration of political appointees who are already
thanking the governor for the gesture.“The ghost workers have been weeded out
and the governor is committed to his word that no genuine civil servant
would be adversely affected, that is why adequate time was given to
workers to come and defend themselves.”
He noted that some genuine workers had
started receiving payment alert for their salary arrears, adding that
all the Local government Administrators have been directed by the
governor to do the same.
