The workers praised the governor. Before now, the governor had paid salaries between the 13th and 20th day of each month.
Governor Ayade told the workers, who named him the “Best Labour Friendly Governor in Nigeria”, that his administration had a duty to give workers a sense of dignity.
“We must create opportunities for labour to feel a sense of dignity. If you are truly a Christian, you must know that as you care for your kids, you must care for labour,” he stated.
Another good news is that workers in the Edo State civil and public got cheering news during the May Day celebration as their salaries were increased.
Workers’ salaries were increased by 45 percent. The minimum wage is now N25,000.
The workers, especially members of the Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees who were in pensive mood at the beginning of the rally, danced and sang praises of Governor Adams Oshiomhole.
