Ogun State Governor, Ibikunle Amosu yesterday lashed out at aggrieved workers of the state civil service who have threatened to go on strike over unpaid allowances and wages.
At a town hall meeting organised by the Ministry of Budget and Planning at June 12 Cultural Centre, Abeokuta, insisted he would not succumb to the demands of the workers.
According to him, it is insensitive of the workers to be threatening to go on strike even when the economic recession is biting hard on all states.
"We all know this, yet some are not using their brains. They don’t have brains and they don’t know what they are doing. They don’t have sense. I cannot give what I don’t have. Teachers alone collect N2 billion monthly. If you want to join politics go and resign, you can then become card carrying member of political parties, you can start printing posters if you want to contest” He said.
