Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde has announced a N10,000 monthly salary top-up for all state workers over the next three months to help cushion the impact of rising fuel prices.
Speaking at an event in Ibadan on Monday, Makinde said the allowance, starting in April, is aimed at supporting workers with petrol and transportation costs. He added that the payment could be extended if economic conditions do not improve.
“I’m happy to announce that all workers in Oyo State and the local government starting from April, at least for the first three months, will be given N10,000 in addition to their monthly salary as petrol/transportation support. All workers, everybody. It is a flat rate. Maybe it would be extended.
“Those who are not working with the Oyo State government may also benefit from it. We will handle it properly to ensure it is all-inclusive. As I approach the end of my administration, one of the things I’m particularly focused on is ensuring continuity,” he said.
