Akerdolu urges workers to forget owed salaries

Ondo state governor Rotimi Akeredolu has urged workers in Ondo state workers who keen on collecting their past salaries owed during the tenure of Mimiko to forget it because if all the
money are use to pay for salaries,there won't be money to other things

 “If workers meet and say they waived two months, we will be glad, but if they insist on having the full arrears, we will look for ways of paying. The government will continue to try and make sure we don’t owe them salaries,” the governor said according to The Guardian.

  “Before we present our budget and after presentation, I have to address the workers to let them know that it is not possible to use all our money to pay salaries. We have said this many times, we must be prepared to make sacrifices because we don’t borrow money to pay salaries, something must be done.

  “I thank the people for their efforts and resilience. I know it’s not easy, but it’s also getting increasingly difficult for the government too. But whatever we do, we would try not to owe salaries,” he added.
