Na because of dis wahala wey dem dey struggle, di OAGF don beg di affected staff to hold body small, say dem dey work on di issue na immediately.
“We dey apologize for di inconvinience wey dis situation don cause,” Mokwa talk. “We wan assure all di workers say we don take steps to make sure say di failed payments go clear for dem account without further delay.” Na still Bawa wey bright pass for him statement talk say dem also dey plan to handle di outstanding arrears of di N35,000 wage award wey plenty workers dey wait for since four months. E be like say dem no gree rest at all!
