Osun State governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke, on Friday pledged that his administration will not be among defaulters in the payment of the new minimum wage.
Adeleke said after the National Assembly might have passed the bill and finalised with every other things on it, the state government would abide by the rule because “it has become a law”.
The governor who made this known in Osogbo, through the Commissioner for Information, Mr. Kolapo Alimi, expressed commitment to implementing the N70,000 minimum wage for civil servants in the state.
“Our governor is a lover of workers; his first agenda is to prioritise the welfare of workers both active and non-active.
“Governor Adeleke will not be among defaulters of the new minimum wage. Osun State will never deviate from the law on minimum wage.”
The governor stressed that the welfare of workers is a top priority for his administration and he will not deviate.
