The President of the Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees, NULGE, Taraba State Chapter, Comrade Wakili Bajison, has commended Governor Agbu Kefas for his commitment to the welfare of local government workers through the payment of outstanding salary arrears inherited from the previous administration.
Bajison said the governor’s decision to clear the backlog of unpaid salaries has brought relief to thousands of workers and their families, and demonstrates genuine concern for their wellbeing and financial stability.
According to the NULGE president, the settlement of the inherited salary liabilities reflects Governor Kefas’ resolve to address longstanding challenges facing the local government workforce and restore confidence in the system.
He noted that despite inheriting significant financial obligations, the governor has continued to prioritise workers’ welfare, describing the action as evidence of responsible and people-oriented leadership.
“Governor Kefas has proven himself to be a leader who has the interests of the masses at heart. His commitment to improving the lives of workers and ordinary citizens is evident in his policies and actions,” Bajison said.
He urged local government employees to remain dedicated to their duties and continue supporting government initiatives aimed at improving service delivery and the overall development of Taraba State.
