The AGG also called on the Governor to ensure that the remaining arrears are paid as soon as possible.


Similarly, the state chapter of the Nigerian Youth Congress (NYC) said that the approval was "a major step in the right direction" and "an exhibition of the Governor's love to the people of Osun."

These actions have been welcomed by civil servants and other stakeholders in the state, who have expressed their appreciation to the Governor for his commitment to the welfare of workers.


The approval of the half salary arrears is a further demonstration of Governor Adeleke's commitment to democracy and good governance.
