Why I can’t pay workers salaries - Rauf Aregbesola

Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State says the drop in
allocations to the state from the Federation Account is
largely responsible for his inability to pay his state civil
servants their salaries. Aregbesola said this after he received
an award by the Voice of African Women for Human Dignity,
an NGO at Abuja yesterday July 24th.
"I have found it hard to pay the wage bills owing to the
declining federal allocation to the state. Federal allocation to
the state has reduced by 40 per cent since 2013, thereby
making it difficult for my government to meet its
responsibilities,” he said.
