Two days before the end of 2024, Governor Seyi Makinde kept to his promise to pay the famous 13th month salary.
The alert crept into the phones of joyous Oyo State workers in the evening of Monday December 30.
In a statement by the Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Prince Dotun Oyelade, this is in spite of the cumulative payment of ₦77 billion which Government spends yearly for salaries and wages of oyo state workers.
The commissioner recalled that only two weeks ago, Governor Makinde approved the payment of ₦80,000 minimum wage for Government workers after the issue of the consequential adjustment had been resolved by the negotiating council.
Prince Oyelade said that from January 1, 2025, a total sum of ₦143 billion on salaries and wages annually will now be paid by the government in keeping with the approval of the new minimum wage.
This represents a whopping 86% increase in salaries and wages.
According to him, this puts Oyo State as having one of the three highest workers’ packages in the whole of the federation.
He noted that oyo state has the highest population of government workers in the South West.
