Workers of Ifako-Ijaiye Local Government have praised the Acting Chairman, Usman Akanbi Hamzat, for approving the payment of Christmas bonus and prompt payment of their increased welfare package.

The Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees (NULGE) Chairman in the local government, Comrade Kayode David, who spoke at the maiden thanksgiving service and prayer session organised by the acting chairman, noted that Ifako-Ijaiye was the first local government to pay workers 13th month salary and enhance their welfare packages.

Hailing the acting chairman for his administrative success and landmark initiatives since his assumption of office, David said it is clear from the steps so far taken by the council’s new leadership that the local government is heading for greater heights.
