Was he supposed to be paid pension in the first place. Serving a state for just 8 years entitled him for pension while those that put in over 30 years sometimes die without being paid others are languishing in pains. While their educated children are the ones hailing these oppressors.

Every past Governors in Nigeria are receiving pensions!

Solokopo:
Now that is a man that feels the plight of the poor.

INDEED! NONSENSE.

Senator Gbenga Daniel could have replace my account number so I should be receiving the alert every month.

Tinubu will never stop that in Lagos! till now tinubu still dey collect pension for lagos,,abeg how NIGERIA go take better Nnah dey joke aswear

NIGERIAJAGAJAGA:
Good leader. But OGD lay low ooooo. I don't even know he contested as senator, not to know maybe he won.

I guess you weren't following Ogun politics news.

It's a normal thing now.

Why publicise it and make it look like something exceptional.
He is a serving senator and former governor. He can't be paid from double sources from taxpayers' money.... Reasonable thing is to let go of the pension and allowances.

He isn't the first and only former governor to do that. Remember, a case was instituted against Bukola Saraki about it that he was still collecting pensions/allowances from Kwara state whilst he was serving as a senator....

After cashing out, everything collected should be returned

Villagemeat:
So you have been collecting pension

he said he has not benefited any entitlement since he left office

DaddyCoool:
WHY DON'T OTHERS DO SAME??
How can someone with any conscience be collecting the humongous entitlements as serving senator and SAME TIME be collecting "pension" as ex-gov?? Isn't pension for those who have retired??
THIEVES!!

God epp us......

Kudos to the doubters too..

Nigeria is a fail country . May God help us . Nigeria is a country where our government is all about to make their friend and family rich and apart of that nothing more. The rich men would not want to step on the toes of rich men even they know he is into illegal business. That is Nigeria for you

Nigeria is a country where the poor man is crying for pain of having nothing to eat and our government is telling them it is your responsibility to pay money to the rich men even when the rich men had satisfied and have extral store for no good reason.

God blessed Gbenga Daniel . Who know many politician who are receiving this kind of money and the poor are lamented . That is how the money is been share as national cake among the politicians and their friends
( The is called making my friend rich in politician language )

Now that He asked the money to be stopped. I hope the money does not go to another friend but used to better the life of common man . That money can still pay up to six or more youths if they are employed

Am sure it can be EASILY verified. I give it to a former governor who hasn't received the JUICY entitlements SINCE 2011.

If you think that it is no big deal. Ask ALL former governors SINCE 2011 if ANY of them has REFUSED their welfare packages

It was put in place to discourage them from engaging in corrupt practices while offices. This was supposed to make feel financially secured about their future after the office. Apparently, it didn't work as 99% of them are mega thieves

Imagine if it was plenty will he do same?

hisgrace090:
Country where everything is owned by her leaders as citizens languish in poverty daily.

Consequence of laziness

See this bastards called otunba Gbenga Daniel that turned Ogun state to den of robbery, kidnapping and insecurity. I remember those days, where every street is filled with posters of missing people. Before amosun did the magic. This bastard is now having a mouth to talk. Werey.

It's surprising that four years of living as a lord qualifies one for pension which runs into hundreds of thousand. But after working for about thirty-five years, majority receive pension in tens of thousand. Unfortunately, at times, even the tens of thousand is difficult to pay, but the hundreds of thousand comes regularly at the appropriate time.

You are most Welcome

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE NIGERIA PARLIAMENT

Having pondered over what I have been told, read and witnessed in this country over the years. Where we were, where we are and where we may be in nearby future if some urgent steps are not taken to address the current state of affairs in this country. The dilapidated and backward nature of our critical sectors like health and education are nothing to write home about. I considered whether where we are today is as a result of our poor in wealth, mind or expertise; but I believe it’s none of them. Then, why are we here? I believe we’re here today because our first-class citizens (political office holders) have options, while the second-class citizens (the masses) has one and only unavoidable option of going to the public institutions in this country.

In order to remedy these pitiable conditions that is gradually making our dear country a laughing stock among the comity of nations. I therefore request the parliament to enact the following proposals into law, if majority of Nigerians support it; as majority voice is the democratic voice.

1. Anybody whose children is schooling abroad or in a private institution shall be ineligible to contest or be appointed into any political position in this country.

2. All political office holders and their immediate family (husband/wife and children) shall not receive medical attention (medical check-up or treatment) abroad or in any private hospital in this country. In other words, all political office holders MUST receive medical attention in any government owned hospital in this country.

2(i). Any political office holder(s) who feels that his/her health challenge is beyond what the medical professionals and the equipments in our government hospitals can handle MUST resign from his/her political position before seeking for medical attention abroad or in private clinic.

2(ii). Anybody who resigns from his/her elected or appointed political position for any reason other than seeking for another political position using the same party MUST spend a minimum of three (3) years before being eligible of holding political position again.

2(iii). Anybody whose appointment into his/her office is subject to the confirmation of the parliament is included as in 1 and 2 above.

3. An elected political office holder(s) who decamped from the political party upon which he/she was elected to another political party MUST vacate his/her position to the runner-up of the election.

3(i). An elected political office holder(s) who intend to decamp MUST inform the electoral body (INEC) in not less than 21 days of his/her plan defection so that the electoral body will contact the runner-up to be sworn-in.

3(ii). The electoral body will only conduct bye-election to fill the vacate position only when the occupant of the position is dead or when all the contestants (from the runner-up to the candidate that scored the least number(s) of the valid vote cast) in the election are no longer available to be sworn-in into the position.

3(iii). A political office holder who decamped from his/her political party to another party MUST spend a minimum of three (3) years in that party before being eligible to vote and to be voted for, in the party’s primary election(s).

3(iv). The price for the nomination forms of any political parties for its primary election(s) MUST not be more than the annual basic salary of the occupant(s) of the office the person is vying for.

4. Anybody who is entitled to pension as a result of his/her former office/ position, but is still holding another government office/position shall not be paid the pension during that period. And if he/she is also entitle to pension by his/her last office; then the pension of his last office shall nullify the former one(s). Therefore, nobody shall be receiving pension and salary (or two pensions) at the same time from the government coffers.

I firmly believe that the progress of this country depends on most of the above suggestions. I and other concern Nigerians may be mobilizing Nigerians from all walks of life (ASUU, NUT, NMA, NANS, CNPP, NLC, NBA, NYCN, SERAP, CAN, NSCIA, etc) to embark on a peaceful protest across the country, if all or most of the aforementioned proposals are not passed and assented into law by the parliament and the president respectively before 1st October 2023.

Yours sincerely,

Using style to tell them that my money dey una hand ooo. I never collect shishi. How can you suspend what has not been given to you before.

In the first place, what is the essence of paying pension to a serving senator who was once a governor. We have many of them. They still work for government after all.

The constitutions should be reviewed on this.

Gbenga knows it is senseless. Pension is a relief plan.

The masses are busy self-subjecting themselves to divide and rule through ethnicity, religion, partisanship causing distractions from checkmating government excesses whichever way.
