This allegedly angered the Liaison Officer 1, Comrade Shola Adebola who directed the management to of the council work on the file of the duo.
Meanwhile, KogiReports.com reliably gathered that the queries issued to these staff were answered by the Nigerian Union of Local Government Employees (NULGE) executives.
A source within the council told our correspondent that the Pastor from Ife-Olukotun slumped sometimes ago while coming from work as a result of hunger and other pressures.
The peaceful rally, was planned by a large number of council staff but only two had the courage to go ahead with the plan because they fear the LO.
At a meeting held at the premises of the local government council yesterday, staff insisted that if the LO is paying half salary, it must be that of May.
