Dino Melaye, a Federal lawmaker representing Kogi West in the Senate has drawn attention of lawmakers to what he described as the pitiable state of Kogi state workers who have not been payed salaries‎ for about sixteen to twenty one months

Mr Melaye who wept while explaining the precarious situation of kogi workers to the Senate under point of order, told lawmakers that the non payment of salaries is now a major cause of suicide in the state.

He urged the Senate president to draw the attention of the ‎president Muhammadu Buhari to the matter for appropriate interventions. 

The Senate noted Melaye's point and promised to look into the matter while other lawmakers take turns to console Melaye who was visibly shedding tears with others offering him handkerchief to clean up his tears.
