PICTURES: Pensioners Protesting In Abuja!


What these retired workers are made to go through is disheartning.
Sometimes, they’re instructed to stand under the sun and in the rain for
days for accredition, yet, their very little stipends still don’t get
paid.  Yesterday morning they protested over unpaid monthly pensions
in Abuja. The pensioners gathered at the office of head of the Civil
Service of the federation at the Federal Secretariat  demanding for
payment of their monthly stipends.

})(jQuery);

Meanwhile, remember that Nigerian official anti-corruption agency  EFCC
recently arrested top officials who stole and shared billions of Naira
from the pension funds
