Contrary to the falsehood being peddled by the APC Fred Latimore, to the
effect that Governor Okowa is delaying salaries of Delta State workers to
yield interest for him and his cronies, it is important to let the public
know that the delay in paying workers salaries in the state is as a result
of the delay in holding FAAC meetings at Abuja.

Since the APC administration came into power at the Federal, the FAAC
meetings that usually hold mid months have been moved to month ends with
the last one held on 28th October, 2015.

The FAAC meetings determines how much allocation will be available to
government for the purpose of payment of workers salaries and other
government expenditures. It therefore implies that if the meeting holds by
month end, salaries can't be paid until at least some days after the
meeting.

It is pertinent to inform Dr Fred Latimore and his APC propagandists that,
it is for this same reason adduced above that the Federal Government is yet
to pay her workers salaries.

The Okowa administration is very responsive and committed to the prompt and
regular payment of workers salaries in the state. The Governor has directed
that workers salaries at all levels must be a first line charge.

It is therefore important for the general public and indeed workers in the
state to understand where the delay is coming from.
