“We are committed to the welfare of our athletes. it’s just a small glitch, this coming week,they will receive their alert. Mr governor doesn’t joke with welfare of workers and you know he loves sports and that’s why we are seeing huge investment and restructuring going on, they will soon get alert and it is on record that this administration has never delayed in paying them,so it is never intentional,” he said.
