Unpaid Salaries: Ekiti Workers Chased Out Of Office by Ekiti360(m): 6:19pm On Aug 23, 2018 |
Unhappy at the lukewarm attitude of Governor Ayodele Fayose to the payment of their salary arrears, angry Ekiti workers on Thursday forcefully chased away their colleagues who have resumed to their duty posts at the State Secretariat in Ado Ekiti. The workers, under the aegis of Ekiti Workers Rescue Team, said it was wrong for Governor Ayodele Fayose , who accused former Governor Kayode Fayemi of insensitivity for owing one month salary in 2014 to have betrayed the trust and confidence the workers reposed in him that earned him victory in 2014. The Workers, who were led by former Chairmen of Nigeria Labour Congress(NLC), Com Ayodeji Aluko and his counterpart in Trade Union Congress(TUC) , Com Kolawole Olaiya, accused the government of deceit over its commitment to defray between six and ten outstanding salaries being owed. They began the protest at about 8.25am addressed the workers in front of the secretariat , where they ordered their members to leave their offices and begin an indefinite strike. The Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees (NULGE), in a statement by its State President, Bunmi Ajimoko had earlier told his staff of their third tier across Ekiti to begin a strike, but was later called off due to undisclosed circumstances. The irate workers also dissolved the state executives of the NLC and TUC, headed by Comrades Ade Adesanmi and Odunayo Adesoye respectively, alleging that they have become passive and shying away from carrying out their responsibilities as labour leaders. The leaders had hardly ended their speeches when the workers stormed the offices and started chasing away their colleagues with cudgels. They also observed a minute silence in honour of their members who had died due to financial incapacitation engendered by epileptic salary payment . Addressing the workers , Aluko said: “Today, we are dissolving the executives of NLC and TUC in Ekiti and they stand dissolved , because their leaders, Ade Adesanmi and Odunayo Adesoye have lost their values. They are no longer talking about the welfare of the workers they were expected to defend. “We decided not to do this protest before election, so that they won’t read political meanings to it. Workers have died, just because they are not paid. In 2014, Governor Fayose said any governor who owed just a month salary because he is building infrastructure doesn’t worth being a governor. “Today, the governor is owing pensioners ten months, LG workers eight months and civil servants and teachers are owed six months. We are not fighting Governor Fayose but he must pay the workers. “Shortly after the election, Fayose quickly paid six month salaries and furniture allowances of political office holders, then what becomes of our teeming workers? “It was sad that Adesanmi and Adesoye decided to give Fayemi three months moratorium to pay workers when assumed office, when they were practically doing nothing to ensure that Governor Fayose doesn’t leave office a debtor governor as he promised. “We hereby declare indefinite strike commencing from today and only the national secretariats of both TUC and NLC can negotiate on our behalf, because we no longer trust the State leaderships of the two congresses”, he said. In another leaflet circulated by the workers under the aegis of Ekiti workers Rescue Team, they accused the labour leaders of getting a sum of N14 million as mobilization from Governor Fayose to enlist their backing for the July 14 governorship election. When contacted, the state commissioner for information, Lanre Ogunsuyi said the head of service should be contacted on the industrial action adding that politicians are not on strike in the state. http://kikiotolu.com/unpaid-salaries-ekiti-workers-chased-out-of-office/ 3 Likes

Today, the governor is owing pensioners ten months, LG workers eight months and civil servants and teachers are owed six months. We are not fighting Governor Fayose but he must pay the workers. This is the height of uselessness. Even the #3000 he sent to them on the eve of the election day was reverted when he lost the election. It is 99% certain he will embezzle the money without paying and see it as part of his severance pay in government, he will rot in Jail for all his atrocities most def! Anyone that wished death for our PRESIDENT Buhari as this mad man did will definitely go before him! fmzzy:Interesting! You know when a 15 years old is playing with mommy's phone! 77 Likes 5 Shares |

“Shortly after the election, Fayose quickly paid six month salaries and furniture allowances of political office holders, then what becomes of our teeming workers? At least, all the pretence about being a friend of the masses is now over. Fayose paid six month salaries and furniture allowances of his political appointees but refused to pay the arrears of the poor working folks. Such a wicked soul. 5 Likes 1 Share |
