His Excellency , Governor Alhaji Ahmed Usman Ododo,
I write to you as a concerned citizen of Kogi State.
Looking at the recent increased allocation to State Governors and the biting inflation in our dear country with Kogi State topping the Chart.
I wish to draw your attention to the fact that the payment of 18k minimum wage to Kogi state Government workers do no longer make any economic sense.
If you continue paying the oldest minimum Wage, very soon most of the Government workers will no longer be able to afford transport fare to come to their respective offices, not to talk of meeting their needs. I understand that most workers do not know that they deserve their pay, but let me do this Ajayi work on their behalf.
Just like your counterpart in Edo State and many other Governors have started paying the 70k minimum Wage, I want to let you know that it is doable and you will still have money left for capital projects that the state is in dire need of.
Do not listen to hanger on in the corridor of power who will tell you to forget what I am telling you.
Please pay them, it has become a law, it is their right and not a Favor.
If you can afford to pay thousands of aides, you can afford to pay the new 70k minimum Wage.
Yours Truly,
Citizen Nagaziman .
