Bayelsa State government hasĀ told the state workers that the non-release of the monthly federal allocation and the expected Paris Club debt refund was responsible for the delay in the payment of Novermber salaries.

The State Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Daniel Iworiso-Markson, said this on Tuesday in Yenogoa, the state capital.

He said the funds due to state governments had not been released because of the failure of the Federal Government to hold the crucial meeting of the Federal Accounts and Allocation Committee (FAAC) for the month of November.

Iworiso-Markson, however, assured workers in the state that the state government would ensure a prompt payment of the salaries as soon as the funds were released.
