Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti state has apologised to primary school teachers in Ekiti State over the mix-up in the payment of their September, 2015 salary as a show of respect for the teachers and understanding of their plights.
A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Idowu Adelusi said, “even though the mix-up was from the State Accountant General’s office but as the State governor, he takes responsibility.”
The statement stated further that, “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the root of the matter, I have found out that there were mix-ups here and there, the accounts were credited and later withdrawn for carelessness in the accountant general’s office, for whatever it is I take responsibility, I apologise and want to assure you all the lapses will be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.”
