Anambra will continue to pay salaries - Obiano

Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra state has assured civil servants in the state that his administration will continue to pay salaries of civil servants in the state. While speaking at a 2-day retreat organised by the Anambra state Economic Think Thank (ANETT) in Awka, Governor Obiano said that but for the simple model of financial management adopted by his administration early on, Anambra state would have been amongst the states in Nigeria owing their workers arrears in salaries. "Our focus is to increase efficiency In the system, block revenue leakages and reduce waste. "We have also been able to increase our IGR from 500 Million Naira to over a billion Naira. "Our first line charges remain salaries, pensions and gratuities. "We have not defaulted on any of our ongoing projects. "I'm assuring Ndi Anambra that I'm committed to continuing, completing and commissioning projects started both by my predecessor and my administration"; - Governor Willie Obiano.
