Workers at the Ogun State Government's owned Moshood Abiola Polytechnic (MAPOLY)Abeokuta have accused Governor Dapo Abiodun of being insensitive to their plight over the unpaid four months salary arrears.
The disturbed workers blamed the death of one of their Colleagues as a result of curable Malaria Fever two weeks ago on the ugly situation, saying some of them are facing various health challenges with no financial resources to address such issues
Chairman of the Institution's branch of Academic Staff Union of Polytechnic, Comrade Chibuzor Osifalujo speaking on behalf of other workers, alleged that the Governor failed to give approval to workers' outstanding March and April salaries from the internally generated revenue which has been on his table since almost a week ago.
The ASUP boss says the governor's lackadaisical attitude towards the welfare of the workers is making life unbearable for the workers as their case is becoming hopeless despite their unwaivered sacrifice to the institution and the state.
His words: "I have personally been sick waiting patiently that once salary is approved for payment, i will go for treatment only to be reliably informed that the governor has gone to Sagamu for inspection tour without approving our salaries. Does he want us to keep dying?"
