The Executive Governor of Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun, has approved the payment of hazard allowances for health workers days before the governorship election in the state.
Abiodun is running for his second term as the candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the March 11 governorship election.
The governor announced the approval of the allowances during a recent meeting with health workers at the Presidential Lodge.
Abiodun noted that his administration had intervened in the health sector in the area of increased budgetary allocation and described the state as a hotspot of health professionals.
He thanked the health workers for their dedication to service and support for his administration by rendering selfless service to the people of the state.

He said: “I know that some of you go into depression and other forms of health hazards, so I am going to approve your hazard allowance.
“I want you to liaise with us on how to address the brain drain which is affecting the health sector.
“I am sure with your collaboration, we can find a solution to this problem.”
