Fuel subsidy: Oyo State government to increase salary for workers

The Oyo State Government is planning on increasing the salaries of workers in the state to ease the effect of fuel subsidy removal on the general public. THE GUARDIAN reports.

Head of Service, Olubunmi Oni, revealed this on Wednesday while playing host to the leadership of the state chapter of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) led by its Chairman, Kayode Martins, at the secretariat, Agodi, Ibadan.Information Guide Nigeria
The HoS stated that Governor Seyi Makide had started working on the new minimum wage for all workers in the state, adding that, the government was looking at all possible ways to reduce the suffering of the downtrodden.“We are lucky in this state that we have a listening governor. We have a governor that sees civil service as his constituency. With this, the state will be far better than any other state in Nigeria on minimum wage.”

She assured the NLC that the current administration under Governor Seyi Makinde would continue to prioritise workers’ welfare to cushion the effect of the removal of fuel subsidy.NYSC Portal
