Labour Unions in Ekiti State on Friday Suspended their 4-week old strike following the signing of an agreement with the state government.
Both parties agreed that the state government should, within 7 days, conclude its requests with commercial banks to restructure personal loans granted public servants with a view to giving them relief from loan repayment, pay January 2016 salary immediately and pay that of February as soon as Budget Support Fund was available.
Others required the government to give priority to its obligations to honour public servants, payment of September 2014 salary of primary school teachers as well as Leave Bonus of local government employees.
The Labour Unions also said that the government should make 10 million Naira available monthly to gradually defray outstanding gratuities, release the report of the 2015 staff verification exercise and make monthly provision for capacity building of public servants.
