Governor Okezie Ikpeazu through his Chief Press Secretary has
informed Abia State workers and Pensioners that all outstanding salaries
will be cleared before the end of July 2017.
Press Release
Following the May 29th Broadcast of the Abia state Governor, Dr
Okezie Ikpeazu, where he expressed displeasure over the issue of some
months backlog of salaries and pensions of some workers in the state,
the Governor has vowed to ensure that all outstanding salaries and
pensions owed workers in the state will be cleared before the end of
July 2017.
The Governor considers this as necessary recompense for the hard work
and support of Abia workers who have continued to partner with his
administration to ensure accelerated development of the state.
It should be noted that while more than 80% of Abia workers are up to
date with salaries, some revenue generating units and teachers have
variable months of unpaid salaries alongside pensioners in the state.
Governor Ikpeazu believes that with the expected payment of
outstanding salaries he will be able to achieve his campaign promise of
ensuring regular salary payments without impacting his development
agenda anchored on the five pillars of education, agriculture,
infrastructure, trade and commerce, as well as oil and gas.
