Aregbesola sympathises with Workers over inability to pay Salaries
Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun state has expressed sadness over his inability to pay state workers for months while also denying allegations of financial recklessness being levelled against him.
The governor’s media aide, Semiu Okanlawon, released a statement to journalists in Osogbo during a courtesy visit from the Area Comptroller of the Oyo and Osun Command of the Nigerian Customs Services, Muhammed Bawa.
The statement read, “This administration remains very sensitive to the welfare of Osun workers. The financial situation of the state that has made it unable for the state government to pay workers’ salary is disheartening and painful.
“However, no one can establish a single instance of recklessness on the part of this government.”
