Governor Adams Oshiomhole says the Peoples Cemocratic Party is an anti-worker party which purged the public service of over 7,000 workers in one fell swoop, without paying their pensions and gratuities.
Also, the Governor has assured the workers in Egor Local Government which was omitted from the recent bailout for other Local Governments in the state that their arrears will be paid this week.
Speaking at a gubernatorial rally of the All Progressives Congress at the Olua Primary School in Egor Local Government Area, Wednesday, Oshiomhole said the PDP has a deep-seated hatred for workers and teachers as they were shabbily treated in the ten years they were in the saddle. According to him, “the choice is between two political parties, one which in seven and half years has redefined governance and another which in ten years treated workers shabbily.
“When Nigeria was doing well and PDP was in government in Edo State, don’t forget, the first thing PDP did with Ize-Iyamu as Secretary to Government was to dismiss about 7,000 civil servants.
They sacked them, because according to them, they wanted to reduce labour cost, when actually they wanted to take the money and privatise it.
