Osun state retired workers on Thursday staged a peaceful protest in Osogbo to kick against return of former governor, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola political party (ADC) to the realm of affairs in the state. Retirees from the 2011/2012 Retired Public Servants Association of Osun State and the Unbonded Contributory Scheme Pensioners protested their ongoing struggles with unpaid entitlements, which they have faced for over 13 years since leaving service. After the protest, the Chairman of the association, Comrade Omoniyi Ilesanmi, addressed reporters in Osogbo. He highlighted that the policies of the Aregbesola administration have subjected both workers and retirees to significant hardship. “There were lot of mistakes and atrocities committed by the Government under the Aregbesola regime that we do not pray to recur as it will spell doom to the Public”.
