The Commissioner urged the Chairmen to put all necessary machinery in place to ensure that workers are paid ahead of Sallah celebrations, noting that the state government has fulfilled its pledge to help LGs pay their workers for the month of August.
Mr Banu stated that the Chairmen should notify him immediately if they face any challenges accessing the fund so he can intervene.
