Ondo APC applauds Aiyedatiwa over workers’ welfare
The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ondo State has commended the Governor. Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa over what the party described as uncommon focus on the well-being of the senior citizens.
The state chapter explained that the flag off of N1.4 billion for retirees as gratuity and other retirement benefits, in Akure, which trails recent payment of leave bonus for those in service is “deeply encouraging”.
“The commitment of the State Government, under Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, to the welfare of civil servants and retirees deserves commendation. It is glaringly an uncommon focus on the well-being of senior citizens,” the statement announced.
The state chapter applauds Mr. Governor’s deep interest and dedication to the well-being of both retirees and those in service, adding that the gains to the State and senior citizens are numerous.
“Civil service is the acclaimed engine room of government, and one way to encourage those in service to concentrate on their duties is the assurance of retirement benefits.
“This will boost their confidence in the system, reduce health challenges when they are supposed to be taken off by the system, enhance quality living after several decades of active service, and curb the avoidable appeal for corrupt practices,” the party argued.
The state chapter urged the retirees to reciprocate by supporting efforts of government by contributing to activities in their localities, and offer professional ideas and suggestions for the development of the state.
