Gboyega Oyetola had during the presentation of 2019 budget declared that the era of modulated salary payment is gone, and we are happy to reaffirm that the governor is still more committed to his statement of striving to pay full salary to civil servants.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dWe would also like to state that Gov. Oyetola would not in anyway take any arbitrary decision on matters affecting the civil servants.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dIt is noteworthy to remind the general public that the governor, who was a former Chief of Staff, had successfully managed the labour unions, and as a result, Osun recorded smooth and friendly government-workers relationship.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dIf any decision is going to be taken on welfare of the workers, it is going to be a joint decision where all the labour leaders will be carried along and would be given the opportunity to take the best decision for their members, as we witnessed in the past administration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dWe will like to state that the rumour which is being carried around by the indolent members of the opposition who have lost relevance with the disgraceful defeat they suffered in the governorship and last general elections in the state, is far from the truth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dWhat the laid-back opposition members want is to heat up the polity and incite the civil servants against the government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dThe rumoured return of modulated salary is another pointer to the fact the opposition members never meant well for the workers and the state specifically.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dThe government wishes to state that the administration of Gboyega Oyetola is very much committed to their welfare and the general wellbeing of the people of the state.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dThe civil servants and general public at large are enjoined to dismiss the rumour as there is no iota of truth in it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mr. Adelani Baderinwa, the immediate past Osun Commissioner for Information and Strategy, who is the current supervisor of same ministry, says it is untrue that the state government intends to return to the era of modulated salary, also known as half salaries.
