Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun says he has forgiven his predecessor, Sen. Ibikunle Amosun and others who tried to sabotage his victory at the last governorship election.
Igbere TV reports that Gov. Abiodun spoke at a thanksgiving service held in his honour at the Egba Central Mosque, Kobiti, Abeokuta.
According to him, he has no malice against anyone who was against his emergence as governor, saying that whatever role anyone might have played was predestined.
He said that he has forgiven all those who at one time or the other did what he termed as actions meant to sabotage his ambition to be governor.
“I don’t hold malice against anyone. Anyone who thinks I do should know now that I don’t hold any form of malice against them. I have forgiven such people. I am not out to hunt anyone. Anyone who did hurt me in the past only did that to allow the will of God to come to pass. I am using this medium to let them know that I have forgiven them,” he said.
On the welfare of workers, the governor said he would in the next few days announce the date salaries would be paid every month, whether allocation comes from the Federal Allocation Account Committee account or not.
“In the next two days, I will tell you when you will get your salaries every month and it won’t fail irrespective of if allocation comes or not.
“All salaries would be paid as at when due. Gratuities will be paid those that are being owed. Why will anyone go to work and not earn a salary? Our government will not owe salaries, all salaries being owed, we will start paying until we offset them all. Our pensioners too will get their gratuity. All deductions being deducted from workers salaries will be remitted as at when due,” he said.
