David Mark: Rogue Pension Administrators Stealing Blood Money: Really? What About Legislators? by Nobody: 6:21am On Mar 06, 2012 |
www.thenationonlineng.net/2011/index.php/business/38849-mark-rogue-pension-administrators-stealing-blood-money.html Senate President, David Mark, yesterday said pension fund administrators pilfering funds meant to pay pensioners are accumulating "blood money." Mark noted that mind boggling stories making the rounds indicate that pension administrators in the country are perhaps among the richest Nigerians. Represented by the Senate Leader, Senator Victor Ndoma-Egba, at the on-going probe of the management of pension funds by the Senate Joint Committee on Establishment, Public Service, States and Local Governments, Mark said, such stupendous wealth if made from pensioners’ funds, is blood money. He noted that the moral strength of a nation is determined by how vulnerable citizens are treated and the level of appreciation shown to those who served the nation faithfully. He charged relevant agencies to conduct thorough investigation to determine the truth or otherwise about allegations of massive fraud at pension offices. Ndoma-Egba, who used his parents as examples of the difficulties pensioners going through, said: "I have parents. Both my father and my mother are alive and they are pensioners and I know the difficulties they go through." Director-General, National Pension Commission (PENCOM), Mohammed Kabiru Ahmed, urged the committee not to spare anybody found culpable tampering with funds meant for pensioners. |

Those PFAs are killing civil servants. They collect huge sum of money on behalf of retirees and pay peanuts to the retirees. It is high time that scheme got scrapped. |

Does i mean that when a pot calls kettle black, that it compromises the truth in any way? Same logic that make people come to nairaland screaming that Sylva is being witch-hunted or Bankole's Father shouting persecution when in fact his son is faced with cold hard facts of corrupt enrichment. No wonder Peter Obi made it clear that Nigerians encourage their leaders to steal. Now, the question is DO YOU?? |
