The State Government of Osun has resolved to use 70 per cent of the N6.314 billion of the Paris Club Loan Refund for the payment of salaries and pensions.
This decision was arrived at the State Executive Council meeting presided over by the Governor, Rauf Aregbesola today.
The governor during the weekly SEC meeting assured workers’ across the state of his readiness to prioritise their welfare, adding that the government acted based on the recommendations of workers’ unions in the state.
It will be recalled that the state government in a statement last Friday confirmed the receipt of second tranche of the Paris refund and promised that the disbursement process will be transparent.
