My attention has just been drawn to a purported post credited to me, Comrade Tahirudeen Yunusa Abdullahi (NULGE CHAIRMAN IGALAMELA/ODOLU LGA) that “all the cleared staff of Igalamela/Odolu Local Government have been paid till August 2017”.
Please, I enjoin all the esteem staff of Igalamela Odolu LGA to disregard that particular portion of the post as there was never anytime I made such statement credited to me.
There are some of my genuine staff whom the Governor had granted clemency and pardon now on the cleared list but are yet to be paid their salaries in my Local Government. And that:
1. It is true that the Union NULGE under my leadership paid a courtesy visit to the Administrator in his office on the 13th Nov. 2017 with my entire Exco.
2. The Union congratulated the Administrator on the extension of his office by 6 months and thanked his Excellency for the kind gesture.
3. We thanked and appreciated the Administrator for footing the transport cost of to and fro of over 300 staff of Igalamela Odolu LGA to Lokoja for screening exercise.
4. The Union applauded the Administrator and his Administrative team for their efforts to embarked on the ongoing gigantic and a befitting Local Government Secretariat for the Local Government which is one of what the staff of the Local Government have been yearning for, for a conducive working environment.
5. Equally, the Union appreciated the Administrator for renovating and upgrading the Local Government Guest House to a National Hotel status.
6. We seriously pleaded the Administrator and his team to kindly help to ensure our staff who have been cleared on prerogative powers of His Excellency (Clemency and Pardon) list to be paid along with the Staff that are already receiving salaries in the month of September, 2017 salary to be paid.
7. The Union NULGE under my leadership promised the Administrator, Hon. Baron Okwoli of our total support any day any time.
8. We assured him of the  staff regularity to the office from 8am to 4pm normal working hours of the working days.
Reacting, the Administrator Hon. Joseph Baron Okwoli thanked the leadership of NULGE, Comrade Alh. Tahirudeen Abdullahi for visit and commended them for always standing up to protect the interest and the welfare of workers.
He assured and promised that all the staff cleared on the clemency and pardon list will be paid along with existing cleared staff. And assured the leadership of NULGE of the readiness of his  administration to rebrand and protect the image of the local government.
He greatly commended the branch Chairman Comrade Alh. Tahirudeen Abdullahi whom he described as “a dogged fighter and an ardent protector of the rights of his workers at all time. He noted Comrade Tahirudeen is human and has his faults but I rate him very high”. At least, I score him 70%.
“I am greatly honoured that you have come here today to congratulate and strengthen ties with the present administration. Our mission is to elevate the standard  of the local government and place Igalamela/Odolu on the map of successful local government areas in the state. We are here to add value,” he added.
Hon. Baron also pledged to work with the Union as partners in progress as his doors are always open for the Union to meet and discuss with him on issues as affects the staff welfare.
The staff of Igalamela Odolu LGA and the general public should please disregard any additional information outside this as might be credited to my person, please. Aluta continua!
Comrade Tahirudeen Abdullahi, 
Igalamela/Odolu Local Government NULGE Chairman.
