Commissioner of Finance, Alhaji Usman Mohammed Tinau reiterated the commitment of the state in an\u00a0 interview with the newsmen at the weekend in Minna.<\/p>\n

Tinau assured the commencement of the payment of March salaries at any moment from now or before the\u00a0 week runs over just as he passionately\u00a0 appealed to workers to exercise patience with the government<\/p>\n

Tinau explained further that there were two contractors involved in which one was a ‘legacy debt’\u00a0 who made a supply of motorcycles\u00a0 during the last administration of Dr. Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu to the sum of N200million then, that has raised the debt volume.payment due\u00a0 to long term interests attracted by the money owed the contractor\u00a0 but have agreed through a committee set up by Governor Abubakar Sani Bello to vacate court case for settlement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
