The Osun State salary debacle might be coming to an end already as Local Government Workers have started to collect their March and April 2015
pay.
According to Daily Independent Newspapers, the alerts for the payment have started coming in from Friday June 26, 2015 afternoon, collecting their February salary last.
It was also gathered that workers in others categories in the state would get their payment early next week starting from Monday June 29, 2015 as promised by Governor Rauf Aregbesola.

Impeccable sources in the state revealed that labour unions rejected the option by the government to pay them two to three months and return to their duties posts.
They insisted that they (workers) would collect nothing less than five months salaries before they would call off the on-going strike in the state.
The State Chairman of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Jacob Adekomi, was said to have handed down the decision during a meeting with government officials in the state.
But, the government made it clear that there was no way it could raise five months salaries at once presently, and that payment had to be gradual.
