They said the labour-freindly Governor has by this actions responded stoutly to the public outcry of injustice, noting that he has demonstrated his high regards to the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
They group also appealed to Governor Okowa to extend this magnanimity to the newly recruited Civil Servants by lifting the embargo placed on them.
