“I commend the governor for his dedication to staff welfare in spite of the economic hardships occasioned by the worldwide Covid-19 challenge. The loans were revolving and as such would continue in due course and reach every worker.

“I appeal to those yet to benefit to exercise patience since the scheme is an ongoing exercise that it will soon reach more beneficiaries in due course.

“I enjoin the beneficiaries and all staff to show appreciation to Ekiti State government through loyalty and dedication to duties.”

Abegunde charged the workers to reciprocate the government’s good gesture by showing commitment and diligence at their duty posts.
