The governor of Ondo State Lucky Aiyedatiwa has assured civil servants that payment of the new minimum wage of ₦73,000 would commence in November this year.
Governor Aiyedatiwa, who spoke while addressing civil servants in Akure, said welfare of civil servants would continue to be a priority for his administration.
Aiyedatiwa stated that the committee set up to work out the implementation structure of the minimum wage has concluded its report.
The Governor assured that he would surpass his current achievements if elected Governor in the November 16th governorship election.
He pledged to break his own record by delivering more for the workers.
Anything we have done for civil servants has never been politically driven. If workers are not happy, they won’t be encouraged to put in maximum efforts into their work. That is why we have always prioritised their welfare”, the Governor said.
