According to a statement released by his spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, the affected workers had served the institution as casual employees for about 12 years prior to the governor’s intervention. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1524595905268-5'); }); Addressing the workers, Adeleke attributed the state’s financial difficulties to individuals he accused of instigating crises in local government areas. He said, “They plotted against our government. Their goal is to stop Osun’s development. But despite their evil plans, Osun is growing and our projects are moving.” The governor added that his administration remained focused on delivering good governance despite the alleged challenges. “But by God and the people, we survive, our government is delivering good governance. I won’t stop serving and delivering good things for our people,” he said. Announcing the conversion of the workers’ status, Rasheed noted that those affected had remained in casual positions for over a decade. The labour leader at the teaching hospital, Olamide Faniran, commended the governor for the pro-labour decision. Faniran also appealed for continued support for the administration, stating, “We appreciate your support and assistance to the Osun workers. We saw and felt your sacrifices to make life better for the Osun people. “We will reciprocate by massively voting for your re-election on August 15.” Don't Miss Buhari, Boss Mustapha’s signatures were forged to defraud Nigeria of $6.2m in CBN – EFCC insists at Emefiele trial You may like Adeleke approves ASUU agreement implementation, orders arrears payment Osun Guber: Gov Adeleke expresses cofidence in victory Osun guber: Gov Adeleke, Oyebamiji campaign teams clash over propaganda claims, accountability questions President Tinubu never endorsed Gov Adeleke’s re-election — Osun NASS members LG crisis: Osun APC blames Adeleke for unpaid salaries Gov Adeleke under pressure over Apetu stool vacancy
