Civil servants in Bauchi state have shown their displeasure to the governor in a peaceful protest against the payment of workers' salaries and pensions which has plunged the people into more hardship
Bauchi State Civil Servants have taken to the streets to protest over the non-payment of their salaries and pensions.
They started the protest from Games Village and moved to the Government House, where they destroyed the banners of Gov. Mohammed Abdullahi Abubakar, that were located outside.
According to reports, the civil servants are protesting due to time spent by the goverment in conducting verification exercises to fish out ghost workers. The Government embarked on the verification exercise of its workers four months ago, and since then some salaries have been pending.
