Many civil servants on the payroll of the Kogi state are presently lamenting the non payment of salaries by the incumbent leadership.

Spy Reporters spoke to a cross section of Civil Servants residing in Lokoja who all pleaded anonymity. However, they berated the Governor Yahaya Bello's administration for the untold hardship trending in Kogi state. 

The workers also complained of lack of funds travel to their various towns and wards to participate in the forthcoming general elections. 

Confiding in our reporter, many of the workers confessed they cannot afford transportion fare to enable them travel home to exercise their civic rights. They pleaded with Yahaya Bello to do the needful especially at a very "sensitive period like this".

Recall that Governor Yahaya Bello's government embarked on a routine staff verification exercise purging many civil servants out of the system. Many died out of frustration and so many civil servants could not afford their hospital bills.
