Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State has explained why many states in the country are struggling to pay their civil servants’ salaries. He blamed the current economic woes in the country to the misrule of the past administration led by Goodluck Jonathan of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
He stated that even governors elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, which ruled the country in the last 16 years agreed with their colleagues from other parties that the “challenge today is as a result of abuses of yesterday”.
According to him, “These issues were discussed yesterday (on Tuesday) and as usual President Buhari has been extremely supportive even though we all agree including PDP governors among us that the crisis that we are being faced was as a result of the misrule of the past.
“The challenge of today is as a result of the abuses of yesterday.
“But inspite of that, President Buhari has been very helpful. But for that, many states would have gone into crisis. I don’t know what you will call a state that is completely insolvent and bankrupt.
“We have to appreciate the President for the leadership he has provided; I mean we all have a greater sense of security today than was the case around this time a year ago.”
