Aregbesola approves 75 per cent increment of workers’ car loan

Osun State Governor Rauf Aregbesola has approved 75 per cent increase in the car refurbishing loan to civil servants.

In a statement, Commissioner for Finance, Economic Planning and Budget Dr. Wale Bolorunduro said the gesture showed the administration’s commitment to the welfare of workers .

Bolorunduro said the review is the first since the state was created 22 years ago.

He said Aregbesola recognises the role of workers in achieving his administration’s goals and would always protect their interests.

Bolorunduro said the review affects workers from Grade Levels 1 to 17. He said workers initially entitled to N100,000 would now get N170,000 and those on N200,000 are now to get N350,000.

The commissioner said the loan would be repaid in 60 instalments within five years.

He urged the workers to reciprocate the gesture by rededicating themselves their work.
