Gov. Aregbesola laments over inability to pay salary workers

Lamenting over the situation, the politician put the blame on the drop of allocations to Osun from the Federation Account, NAN reports.

In his statement, he said
“I have found it hard to pay the wage bills owing to the declining federal allocation to the state. Federal allocation to the state has reduced by 40 per cent since 2013, thereby making it difficult for my government to meet its responsibilities.”

He expressed sorrow over the situation noting that even the state reserves were also over. He said administration had already to accumulate debt of N12 billion in its bid to ensure regular payments.
