From what Trumpeta observed the workers have started lamenting the deduction on their salaries after Uzodinma had promised it was going to be free of charge.
It would be recalled that Uzodinma had last month doled out buses to move the workers through and fro their homes to offices on workdays.
Observations by our correspondent has it that the rate workers thronged to use the free bus has reduced following discoveries that their monies were to be deducted from the monthly salaries paid to them.
After the bus donation, workers started using the vehicles until deductions on their salaries commenced at the end of month of September.
Irked by the development, the workforce are asking government to withdraw the buses and allow them undergo the initial process of public transport.
The workers there have started rejecting the morning snacks and free ride. They are crying to the Governor asking to withdraw the staff buses so that they can come to work on their own.
Even the snacks, they now saying no to it. Some of the aggrieved workers complained that there are intending plans by Government to subcharged them for this free ride and snacks.
