| Gov., Yahaya Bello of Kogi State. |
The
organized Labour in Kogi State has described the payment of December 2018 and
January 2019 salaries to state workers and pensioners as a huge relief to them.
In a statement
by the NLC Chairman in the state, Comrade Onuh Edoka and his TUC counterpart,
Ranti Ojo, the payment of the two months arrears to workers and pensioners
would go a long way to reduce the suffering of the workers and pensioners.
The
Labour leaders commended the state governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello for keeping to
his promise to defray the outstanding salary arrears to workers and pensioners
in the state and appealed to him to sustain the current tempo of payment to
enable it settle all outstanding salaries in due course.
The
statement also called for improvement in the percentage salary paid to teachers
and local government workers, stressing that any percentage short of what was
agreed with Labour will not be acceptable.
According
to the Labour Leaders, the loyalty of organized Labour to the government is
unequivocal, stressing that the only concern they had was the welfare and well being
of workers and pensioners, but with what the governor had done, the workers are
happy and would continue to support the government as usual.
