Ayo Fayose says he has gone on indefinite strike
Ekiti state governor, Ayo Fayose, says he has gone on indefinite strike
just as the state civil service are currently embarking on an indefinite
strike following unpaid salaries. In a live broadcast in the state
today June 4th, Fayose said
“I want to tell workers that I have placed myself on indefinite strike
in solidarity with them. I share your pains, but it is rather
unfortunate that a man can’t give what he doesn’t have,” he said in a
broadcast.
Presently, I am handicapped and there is nothing I
can do. I appeal that you put the interest of the state above
everything, because the present position affects everybody. I have told
you the true position of the finances of the state, of which you had
played critical roles in allocation of federal allocations to relevant
sectors which shows how well I had carried you along since the dwindling
revenue to the state commenced. During my first term, I mean, 2003 to
2006, I used to pay salary of workers by 21st of every month. But the
present situation is very unfortunate and we have to learn how to live
with it until the country wriggles out of it and things will change for
better. I want to say that I will be expecting you back to your offices
when you are ready to return to work. I shall be expecting you.”he said
