He said: “Our governor is a lover of workers; his first agenda is to prioritise the welfare of workers both active and non-active.

“Governor Ademola Adeleke will not be among the defaulters of the new minimum wage. Osun state will never deviate from the law on minimum wage. Governor Ademola Adeleke will key into it.”
