Osun tertiary institutions IGR workers beg Oyetola to regularize their appointment

The casual staff in the four tertiary institutions owned by Osun State government otherwise known as Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) staff have appealed to Governor Gboyega Oyetola to consider them for permanent job.

The staff who work at the Osun State Colleges of Education in Ilesa and Ila-Orangun, the state polytechnic, Iree and the College of Technology, Esa-Oke urged Governor Oyetola to reconsider their working status to serve as their own dividend of his administration.

The concerned tertiary institution workers in an open letter to Governor Gboyega Oyetola appealed to the state government to consider them for permanent employment.

The workers who complained about the harsh economic situation, lamented that their monthly take home was not sufficient to take care of their families.

While lauding the administration of Governor Oyetola regarding prompt payment of workers salaries, timely promotion and workers welfare, the concerned workers urged the Governor to also handle their matter with concern.

They recalled that it was the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) administration of Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola that absorbed them, adding that no improvement was enjoyed by them since they were absorbed.

"Many of us who are graduates earn between #30,000 and #35,000 per month and this take home is not sufficient to take care of the home. This is even as many spend much on their studies. It is on this note, we are appealing to the Governor to come to our aid by giving us permanent job.

They also complained that many of them have put in between 10 and 12 years in the service of the various things institutions without being considered for permanent status or promotion.

They said the Governor has done so much for workers in the state, especially with the prompt payment of salary and promotion and therefore begged the Governor to consider their situation as well.

They also promised to work for the growth and development of the state.
