I think you're the real liar here. Civil Servant don't work up to 40 years. Is 35 years active service maximum. You see you're the copmpound liar and not APC.

chloride6:

Not if you first work fo the stat civil service and then the Federal.

FarahAideed:
This makes no sense ...they have not told us how much tax Mr Lema paid and what type of tax he was paying

ihatesycophant:
That doesn't mean? If you've worked elsewhere, it means your termination or retirement will come by age, meaning you will not work up to 35 years again. Retirement comes either by age (60) or active service (35). Your thinking have been taken care by PUBLIC SERVICE RULE. No one works more than 35 years in government working sector.

chloride6:


There are 42 years in between 18 and 60.

You can work for the first 10 in the state service and finish the remaining in the Federal.

This is nonsense, every civil servant who has put 40 years continuous service is fully tax compliant.

My father worked for the govt for over 40 years continously

ihatesycophant:

I think you're the real liar here. Civil Servant don't work up to 40 years. Is 35 years active service maximum. You see you're the compound liar and not APC.

ihatesycophant:
You lied. No pensionable government employee works more than 35 years active service, except if your father works as a non-pensionable worker in government sector. Your father may be gardener or security guard or contract staff. Stop lying here and learn.

potterdon:
U so after they stop being civil servant they are excused from paying tax if they embark on other ventures. zombies will defend evil no matter how stupid they sound

ihatesycophant:
I think you're the real zombie here. You did said, civil servant working for 40 years that their taxes deducted from source and I did told you no government employee work more than 35 years. So, I am not trying to defend anything but to correct you as a liar.
Come to think of it, how many retired employee continue tax payment in Nigeria? I think it few, 1 or 2 out of 10. If you want to comment, do so reasonably.

geometricaxis:


my father did. in fact longer than 40 years

Is that why arsenal keep embarrassing their big heads

ihatesycophant:
Hence, your father was not on pensionable payroll or probably not working. Every employed under federal or state civil service works for 35 years active service or retirement age of 60 years. No more no less. I am 100% sure your father worked as a non- pensionable worker.

Okoroawusa:

40 years?


In Nigeria?

potterdon:
ur the one not reasoning so those 2 out of 10 u mentioned even though they r far more considering the government would just steal their pensions. still keep playing tax even when they join another employment till they die so why don't they get this awards.

geometricaxis:


The question you should ask yourselves is what category of govt workers are excempt from this "normal civil service" rule?

ihatesycophant:
It seems you don't know what you're saying. A man retired after spending 35 years in a certain job will now go hunting for another. Do you know what that man's age will be? A man of over 50 years averagely will go fishing for another job when he'll be thinking on how to carter for children and not be other the apron spring of one employer. It means such man doesn't plan well for his retirement. Every sane employee will prefer to be an employer of labour than be employee after 35 years active service.
If this is the mentality you've been carrying to retire and still scouting for job after 35, then you need to redirect your prayer line. Every retiree always prefer contract job than having permanent job after retirement.

geometricaxis:



educate yourself, I am not going to make it easy for you by telling you what type of govt worker he was but in total he worked for the govt for 46 years of which he was on leave of absense/study leave for 5...I just called him to confirm Go and do your research, i told you he was a govt employee but not a "ministry" worker.

I am not arguing with a man who says he knows my father more than me

And he is currently receiving his pension

potterdon:
lol u just beating around the bush the issue is that many Nigerian civil servants pay more taxes and for a longer time than the guy being given the awards. And as such it's nothing but a scam to fool the gullibe

By public service rule, no employee works more than 35 years of active service. You guys need to stop commenting on things you know next to nothing about. The problem you guys have, is looking for all avenue to just criticise without a single prerequisite knowledge of subject matter.

Not true. Retirement age is 70 for professorial cadre in public universities same for justices of the Supreme Court. Non teaching staff of universities retirement age is 65 courtesy SSANU/FGN 2009 agreement.

OpanachiOzohve:
After 35 years they keep on getting paid in what is called pensions and every money paid to you by the government is taxed.
