Governor Fayemi orders 50 percent salary cut of all Ekiti political appointees
Governor Kayode Fayemi has directed that the salaries of all political appointees in Ekiti state be cut by 50 percent.
In a statement issued by the state's commissioner for information and values orientation, Muyiwa Olumilua, Governor Fayemi stated that the decision became necessary following the impact of COVID-19 in the state.
The Ekiti State Governor stated that the salary cut will not affect civil servants in the state, but only him, his Deputy Governor and his appointees. It is expected that the 50 percent cut from the salaries of appointees will be channelled into the execution and completion of developmental projects in the state.
