Pensioners Protest In Benue, Two Feared Dead (Photos) by GidiParrot(op): 12:50pm On Feb 07, 2017
As the protest by pensioners entered its second day, two members of the pensioners are feared dead as they slumped and passed out during a match to the Benue State House Of Assembly and have been rushed to the Benue State Teaching Hospital.

Tears filled my eyes as I saw this elderly people for the second day running walk the streets of Makurdi demanding for their ten (10) months pension arrears.

As they approached the gates of the Assembly to press forward their demands through the speaker of the house, they were pushed back by the security details saying that they were given others from above to deny them entrance into the complex. The pensioners resisted and were eventually allowed to enter.This is just to tell the Benue people how insensitivity and wicked this government is.

The question here is this, what happened to their money as captured in the bailout remains a mystery?

Please remember to pray for the quick recovery of the two Mr Sunday Agbo and Mr Lawrence Ateke.

The silent curses of these elderly citizens is enough to send the looters of our common wealth and our politicians who wickedly promised us change but made things worst to their early grave.

This is common in almost all states plus the FCT.

BTW, Gidiparrot, how you mean, in your lat sentence, to pray for the recovery of the 2 feared dead or you don't understand what you post?

Re: Pensioners Protest In Benue, Two Feared Dead (Photos) by Iceman2017(m):
embarassed sometimes we will be quick to criticize the government, but the truthbis that most of the pensioners abused office while still serving and karma indirectly catching them up.

Thou not in support of this APC government but we need to always make a hay while the sun shines.

Senior citizens that are supposed to be enjoying their retirement are being treated this way. I hope everyone has learnt their lesson by now, these old fools are not to be trusted to be our president/governors. Make una open una eye for 2019cry

What baffles me is that all these senior government officials who deny the pensioners their rights never ever realise that they will also become pensioners one day. Even the politicians who loot public funds are even clamouring for pension.
