PDP Blasts Aregbesola For Paying 1 Month's Salary

As the government of Osun State commenced payment of the salary arrears owed workers in the state, the Osun State chapter of the People's Democratic Party on Tuesday took a swipe of the Governor for disappointing the state's work force.
In a statement made available to The Anchor Online, the chapter's spokesman, Prince Diran Odeyemi said "with utmost disappointment and embarrassment, we received the news of one month payment of
workers salary in Osun. It is indeed a shock for Osun workers to receive payment alert of their December salary in July leaving an outstanding 7 months unpaid with no fixed date for the payment. While sympathizing with the entire work force and retirees in Osun, we appeal to them not to take laws into their hands and remain calm in the face of disappointment from the Governor".
On the reduction of the remuneration of political office holders, Odeyemi said "we however condemn the propaganda of the government that it has reduced the salaries of political functionaries by 50%. We want to state categorically that only the Deputy Governor, Chief of Staff, and SSG are political functionaries as Governor Aregbesola has refused to appoint commissioners since October 2014".
