Commissioner for Establishments and Training in the State, Professor Salihu Adelabu, who disclosed this in Ibadan, said progress was made possible after the Governor Seyi Makinde-led administration increased the monthly gratuity payment from N100 million to ₦1 billion.

Adelabu explained that this bold step significantly accelerated the clearance of outstanding gratuities, ensuring that more retirees received their entitlements promptly.
