Governor Rochas Okorocha of   Imo State, has directed that the 10 months arrears of salaries owed all health workers in the state should be cleared immediately.
Although the government press statement signed by the Governor’s media aide, Mr. Sam Onwuemeodo, explained that “government delayed the payment of the health workers’ salaries to enable it resolve the issues of certain questionable allowances and gross case of unseriousness on the part of the health workers”, Vanguard however gathered that “the health workers preferred to forego the salary since it was unreasonably and inexplicably slashed by government”.
Apart from the health workers, Governor Okorocha also directed that all the workers should be paid their salaries up to 10 months.
His words: “The truth is that there was never a time the state government intended to owe the health workers in the state.
“The only thing was that the government  was not satisfied with health workers’ conduct and their poor service delivery to the people, despite the huge amount spent on the payment of their salaries and allowances.”

Very good of you your excellency, no matter what should be the case the government shouldn't be delaying the salaries of workers because most of them don't have any other way of living.
