In a significant move, Governor Alex Otti of Abia State has paid off the long-standing salary arrears of staff at Abia State Polytechnic, Aba, and secondary school teachers, accumulated over 30 months by previous administrations. This development has brought immense relief and joy to the affected staff, who had been waiting for their due wages for an extended period.
The payment of the salary arrears is a testament to Governor Otti’s commitment to prioritizing the welfare of Abia State’s civil servants and using the state’s resources for the benefit of its people, rather than politicians. The governor’s actions align with his promise to make Abia’s money work for Abians.
