Fayose apologises to teachers over mix-up in payment of salaries

The Governor of Ekiti State, Mr. Ayodele Fayose has apologised to primary school teachers in the state over some “mix-ups” in the payment of their last month’s salary.

This was contained in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi.

Fayose was quoted as saying, “Even though the mix-up was from the State Accountant General’s office but as the state governor, I take responsibility.

“I want to apologise for the inconsistency and problems encountered in crediting the accounts of some primary school teachers, it was after my broadcast few days back that I got a lot of text messages from some teachers that were affected.

“I sincerely want to apologise, I have gotten to the root of the matter, I have found out that there were mix-ups here and there, the accounts were credited and later withdrawn for carelessness in the Accountant General’s office. For whatever it is, I take responsibility. I apologise and want to assure you all the lapses will be corrected.

“My teachers at the primary school level, this money will be credited to your accounts between now and Wednesday unfailingly, my apologies.”
