Ekiti State workers yesterday said they fared better under former Governor Kayode Fayemi. They alleged poor welfare conditions occasioned by non-payment of their salaries and other entitlements. Acting under the aegis of Enlightened Workers Forum (EWF), they claimed that the Yuletide was “the worst for workers in the history of Ekiti” as many of them celebrated the holidays in hunger. The EWF, in a statement yesterday by its Coordinator, Mike Bamidele, said workers enjoyed salary increase at least three times during the Fayemi administration besides other incentives such as promotion, special Christmas/New Year allowances, among others. Fayemi, according to them, “gave substantial Christmas bonuses to all workers, which started from 10 per cent of basic salaries in his first year to 30 per cent in the fourth year”. The EWF recalled that during negotiations leading to the N19,250 minimum wage being enjoyed in the state, it was believed that the Federal Government would increase allocations to states but this was not to be as states began having problems with payment of salaries. They said the ex-governor in agreement with labour leaders adopted the option of paying net salaries and differing deductions till when there would be special releases but the organised labour did not carry workers along on the decision “hence the blackmail that followed”. The statement said: “Fayose has never increased salary in the history of his governance of Ekiti State, rather he is known for inciting the people of the state against the workers. “We had no doubt found ourselves in a situation whereby the Awo free education legacy had been destroyed in Ekiti State, as pupils in primary and secondary schools have to pay fees. “Now artisans and various trade groups groan under the burden of heavy tax. May God save workers from the pains they are going through. The benefits of the Fayemi administration were enormous.”

Too early to start to complain you voted him then let him lead people for the net four years.

I don't think they know the difference between right and left.

When you vote for ex danfo driver, this is what you get.. Enjoy yourself while it last...

You had a governor that provides you with basic amenities(good roads, free education with well equiped libraries, good welfare packages for workers etc) yet you said he's not connected with the grassroot. Now you are having a tout that is connected with the grassroot, enjoy yourself...

another propaganda from the NATION newspaper

Ungrateful, "unappeasable" and "propagandaish" elements.

The NLC ekiti state chapter is the official organisation for all ekiti workers.This so called EWF is a pro-APC body which only exists on the pages of Tinubu's nations newspapers

Have you ever heard about EWF before today? What sort of labour organisation is that

They should face their reality.

cktheluckyman:

Have you ever heard about EWF before today? What sort of labour organisation is that

Guy, leave trash for Lawma and focus on the essence of their message rather than attacking the messenger. The real question is, was their lot truly better under Fayemi than the present government in the state?

cktheluckyman:

Have you ever heard about EWF before today? What sort of labour organisation is that

The same NLC that has factions and two presidents?
