Oyelade attributed this to a significant decline in Oyo State unemployment rate following a series of high-pitched employment of workers into various sectors of the State.

The Commissioner also emphasized that Oyo State pays its workers salaries on the 25th of every month since Governor Makinde came into office in 2019.

He also said the Governor started paying the previous ₦30,000 minimum wage from inception over four years ago, including consistent payment of pensions, gratuities and 13th month salary for both workers and pensioners alike.

According ro him, since November 2023, Governor Makinde has been paying ₦25,000 to its workers and ₦15,000 to its pensioners as a welfare wage award.

The Information Commissioner noted that the Seyi Makinde administration started paying the wage award to cushion the effect of the Federal Government induced fuel subsidy removal and has also been consistent with the payment for over a year even till date.

Oyelade reiterated that the governor has paid the backlog of gratuities from 2008-2015 for Pensioners with increase in gratuity payment for Pensioners at both the Local Government Staff Pensions Board and those paid by the Ministry of Establishment and Training.

He added that the Governor has also put back into payroll, Pensioners whose names were removed by the immediate past administration and giving all pensioners annual Christmas/New Year Chicken Bonus.
