Despite Reduced Income, Govts can Still Pay Workers’ Salaries, Says NACCIMA via thisdaylive
Despite the drop in the price of crude oil in the international market, which translates to reduced income for governments in the country, the Nigerian Association of Chambers Of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture has said the three tiers of government can still pay the salaries of their workers.
Adamu said what will go to the coffers of the three tiers of government at the end of the month will pay workers’ salaries and take care of other developmental projects and programmes of the governments though they have to reorder their priorities. “They should cut all these unnecessary expenditure because if they don’t pay workers they will be creating more problem for the economy.”
According to him, “The coronavirus will be here for a long time, so we should learn how to live with it.”
