Retired Nigerian police officers took to the streets of Abuja to protest the non-payment of their pensions after years of dedicated service.

However, the peaceful demonstration was met with resistance, as police officers on duty reportedly tried to suppress the protest and prevent it from gaining public attention.

The incident has sparked criticism and renewed calls for pension reform and justice for ex-service members.

People that fought protesters are now protesting. Junior colleagues will not learn now

This is a good example of how life can humble you and also the law of Karma.

The same way they were used to deal with those fighting for their right is the same way they will be dealt with if they overdo.

Tear gas is needed here. The country is in good shape. Police go back to your house and stop constituting nuisance to the public

I hope they would be treated the way an average policeman that will treat a Nigerian youth that is protesting...

No wonder police officers are now giving themselves their own pension by extorting motorists on the road ,even on express roads ,if u see how they're collecting it calmly without any shame ,u will think they're collecting their normal salaries ,Army people have joined to extort motorists especially in South East
Re: Retired Police Officers Protest In Abuja Over Unpaid Pensions by FreeSpirited: 5:04pm On Jul 21, 2025
They don't even deserve pension for all the atrocities they committed while in service
Re: Retired Police Officers Protest In Abuja Over Unpaid Pensions by Houseofglam7(f): 5:04pm On Jul 21, 2025
I just hope the police won’t disperse them with live ammunition.
Re: Retired Police Officers Protest In Abuja Over Unpaid Pensions by Jb95(m): 5:04pm On Jul 21, 2025
This is wonderful 😂😂

Police that were used to suppress protesters have now turn to protesters after they have retired but their protest is now met with suppression from their own past colleagues who are still in service.

And the circle might just continue with the same ones coming to suppress this particular protesters come out for their own protest when they retire.

This is why some people say Nigeria is a season film 😁

So sad .

The current policemen and women who are still in active service should take one or two lessons from the pains and agony of their retied colleagues...

When we protest ,these are Still the same set of people who are sent to distabilize and fight protesters...
Re: Retired Police Officers Protest In Abuja Over Unpaid Pensions by Babawee: 5:12pm On Jul 21, 2025
The young police officer will not learn from the menace imparting there old colleagues.

In as much as they are corrupt and shouldnt deserve mercy, This peaceful protest is needed for today and the future untold.

T-pain can not pay pensions to men and women who served their country for 35yrs but his daughter flew private jet to Katsina for Buhari's funeral condolence.

This event twist is rather apologetic... The truth may seem bitter but it always good to swallow...

The Nigeria constitution empowers the NPF to investigate, arrest, and arraign offenders of the law...

But over the years... their attitude have displayed complacency... extorting from citizens and providing escort service to those who devour our common wealth... it is like preserving the eggs of a viper, then crying foul when they are grown and turns back to hurt you...

Although... the welfare package of most workers in Nigeria is barely able to sustain a family... it would take a new benevolent government to understand this plight... and develop a living wage that enable workers to have excess balance from they earnings to share, save and invest...

Remember... I am prepared to be the next President of Nigeria...

Re: Retired Police Officers Protest In Abuja Over Unpaid Pensions by Belurved1(m): 5:41pm On Jul 21, 2025
That's why they misbehave when they are still active in service. They already knew that there's no future after retirement. Get rich now or die poor after you retire.
