Governor Adeleke noted that the template released earlier this year on clearing of outstanding salaries and pensions was still in force and subsequently directed the Head of Service to fast-track the implementation by ensuring the payment of the pension arrears in line with the approved template.

“The template was created with an eye on gradual clearing of the salary and pension debts. This was in recognition of the financial status of the state which is well documented and known to the public. Our administration focuses on meeting the various needs of the state within a tight financial situation.

“Our administration is however prioritizing workers’ welfare which covers in and out of service workers. I restate our commitment to the welfare of our senior citizens, the pensioners. The phased payments is a standby directive and I assured our pensioners that they are not and cannot be forgotten,” the governor assured.

“We are working on the details. Once it is finalized, we will release it for immediate implementation,” a statement signed by the Spokesperson to the Governor, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, quoted Adeleke.
