Following the disengagement of ‘irregular workers’ by the Ekiti State government, the affected workers staged a peaceful protest to appeal to Governor Kayode Fayemi to revert the decision.
The commissioner for Information, Muyiwa Olumilua on Wednesday revealed government’s intention to sack the 2,000 workers and others whose recruitment exercise violated due process.Speaking on behalf of the sacked workers, Mr. Olawole Ganiyu, said contrary to the pronouncement made by government that they were employed illegally that their appointments were in line with the civil service rule.
Another victim, Mr. Akande Adekunle, expressed sadness that they could be allowed to suffer since September 28, 2018 they were offered employment without any pay. “One of us lost her pregnancy, because of the shocking news. People of goodwill should intervene in this matter. We should not be sacrificed on the altar of politics, we don’t carry party cards”.
Oyebode described the recruitment exercise carried out by Fayose as pseudo, outrightly illegal and a complete scam. “They were never captured in the State’s Biometric payment system and never received any salary since the purported “appointments”.
