Dear Nairalanders, this thread is for "senior citizens" who have served this country either by working for 35 years or by attaining the statutory age of 60 years as the case may be. Some exceptions include high court judges and university professors who attain 70 years of age before retirement. Another exception which was added lately was staff of tertiary educational institutions whose retirement age was increased to 65 years. All the same, this thread is for anybody who has disengaged from paid employment and is now retired.
In view of the fact that many of these pensioners are not quite IT compliant (not necessarily literate) due to their age, they may not be able to access Nairaland and reap of the many benefits of this forum. However, these pensioners have sons and daughters, nieces and nephews and even cousins of younger age who can articulate issues and bring them to fore in this forum on behalf of them. For pensioners like me who are IT compliant enough to contribute to the discuss on this thread, please feel free to contribute and share your experiences with us. For example, do you experience delays in getting your entitlements? Are you being frustrated by your PFAs? or are you being short-changed when being paid? Please feel free to ventilate your ideas.
We solicit for the cooperation of the Mod in charge of this section to please help bring thorny issues to the public domain so as to get the desired attention from Government or other employers. Thank you.

Reports from Delta state has it that government has not paid pensioners who retired from year 2015 up till 2019. This is de-humanising. How can you treat your senior citizens this way? How do you want them to survive? Please, this is an appeal to Governor Okowa to please come to their aid. It is not completely government money if you ask me. They contributed their had earned money too hence it is called Contributory Pension scheme.
