Pensioners Back Jonathan’s Re-election Bid by Gorzy1: 1:35pm On Aug 11, 2014
Federal Civil Service Pensioners in Nigeria have thrown their weight behind the re-election bid of President Goodluck Jonathan, saying he has done so much to deserve a second term.

Rising from an emergency meeting held in Lokoja the Kogi State capital, at the weekend, the pensioners dissociated themselves from an earlier statement credited to the Nigerian Union of Pensioners (NUP), which said pensioners in the country would not vote for the president in the 2015 presidential election.

In a communique signed by the National President, Mr. J.S Nmodu and the Secretary, Eddie Mene-Ejegi, the group said the statement credited to the NUP president was repulsive, selfish and did not represent the interests of all the members.

The communique, therefore, urged all members to vote en masse for the re-election of the president whenever he signified his intention to run.

The communique demanded equal representation in Nigeria Union of Pensioners’ executive, Board of Trustees and in core committees.

It also urged the NUP to release the check-off dues already collected from the Federal Government to the group within 21 days or face its wrath.

The communique also urged the head of service of the federation and other relevant bodies to involve members of the Federal Civil Service Pensioners in supervising the proposed verification exercise of pensioners in the 36 states of the federation.

GEJ '2015!!!
