Oyo State government has described as fake the social media report that the new salary structure has been introduced .
The Chief Press Secretary to Governor Seyi Makinde, Sulaimon Olanrewaju, said this on Wednesday.
He stated that although the government is working on reviewing the current salary structure, the committee set up for that purpose was yet to turn in its report.
“Therefore, the salary structure being circulated could not have emanated from the state government. It should thus be disregarded in its entirety,” the state noted.
He added that as a way of cushioning the effect of subsidy removal on Oyo State residents as a whole, the governor, has directed the deployment of more Omituntun buses to ease the transportation worries of the residents.
According to him, the governor has also directed that there should be no increase in the fare paid on these buses, while school children and senior citizens are to pay half-price.
He said “the state government is still considering further ways of easing the burdens.)
