Any state governor in Nigeria who can not pay workers’ salaries and pensioners’ allowances despite all the monthly allocations they have been receiving from the federal government of Nigeria have no business being in the state house as a governor just like we have seen in Bayelsa state (Nigeria) today which is unable to pay workers’ salaries for months and pensioners’ allowances too. The practice of democracy is great and beautiful which has given voters every right to change or remove any governor that have not been performing as expected when the time comes. On the other hand, if a governor is doing the right thing for his people in his state, surely such governor will be re-elected for another tenure in office but in Bayelsa state (Nigeria) the story is different, salaries of workers have not been paid for months and pensioners’ allowances also have not been paid. Based on this, Viewers Corner News team believed that the state government has lost its direction. This is unacceptable and very wrong to owe workers’ salaries and pensioners’ allowances, even if it is one month such failure from the state government is unacceptable because those workers and pensioners deserve the right to get what rightfully belong to them. You are not doing them a favour, they earned it and should be paid correctly. Another sad aspect is that the Bayelsa state (Nigeria) government is saying that it is ONLY FIVE MONTHS SALARY the state is owing workers but then do Bayelsa state government in Nigeria really have to owe workers? the answer is NO, therefore we (Viewers Corner News team) are appealing that Bayelsa state government be up to date by paying workers’ salaries and pensioners’ allowances as soon as possible because the livelihood of millions of people from your state depend on that salary and pension money. Viewers Corner News and the advisory team shall campaign against any governor in Nigeria who is not up to date in paying workers’ salaries and pensioners’ allowances during the next governorship election in the country (Nigeria). Please pay up now and get a free landing during the next governorship election.
