”All verified 43, 000 workers without issues will never be owed salaries by this government because we do not regard payment of salary as achievement by any governor, the worker deserves his wage.
“Promotion issues will be looked into as long as the workers remain committed and we want you to desist from blackmailing government.
“Your happiness is my happiness, your sadness is my sadness, your hunger is my hunger “, he said.
