the end of the year bonus Daily Independent reports.
The workers made the commendation in interviews with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) at the state secretariat in Ikeja.

Another civil servant, who gave her name as Monsurat, said the bonus is a pleasant surprise.
“These are trying times; for Governor Babatunde Fashola to come up with this welfare package for the civil savants at a time when some states are not paying salaries, the government deserves great commendation.
