Luck shone on the security guards at the LAUTECH Teaching hospital in Oyo state recently after the governor, Seyi Makinde, ordered an upward review of their salary from N18, 800 to N80, 000.
The governor had visited the hospital on September 30 for an interactive session when one of the security guards found courage to speak about their meager salary. The security guard said himself and other security guards are suffering as they are not permanent staff of the institution and are not getting the benefits they are meant to get.
We are suffering. I have a family with three children. Please help us” he cried out
The governor listened to him and asked how much they earn as salary.
‘’N18, 800” the guard responded
A top official of the hospital informed the governor that they are not staff of the hospital. The official stated that the security of the hospital was outsourced to a company and that N27, 000 is being paid per security officer provided.
Immediately, the governor ordered that all 67 security guards be converted to ad hoc workers and be paid N80, 000 monthly beginning from October 1. He ordered that the hospital immediately terminate the contract with the security firm.
