As workers in the global community celebrate this year’s May Day, the chairman of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Osun State chapter, Comrade Jacob Babatunde Adekomi on Friday lamented that workers and pensioners in the state were suffering due to heavy debt profile and a backlog of unpaid salary arrears.
In his message forwarded to Tribune Online in Osogbo, he said “this is not the best of times for workers in Osun and the ravaging COVID-19 pandemic also compounded the problems.
According to Adekomi, “some of the difficulties we have been facing for the past years in the state include 15 months of unpaid salary and pension arrears left by the immediate past administration which amounted to sixty billion naira (N60bn) for both state and local government workers.
