LASG remits over N4bn as retirees’ pension funds
The Commissioner for Establishments, Training & Pensions, Mrs. Ajibola Ponnle, who made this known at the 66th Retirement Benefit/Bond Certificates Presentation ceremony held at the NECA House Auditorium, Alausa, Ikeja, assured all government workers in the State that more focus would be given to the payment of accrued pension.
Speaking on the efforts by the present administration in the State to clear the backlog of some outstanding pension entitlements, Ponnle said, “Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu has been briefed about the backlog of outstanding pension entitlements and he has promised that more focus will be given to the payment of accrued pension rights. He is aware that without the payment of your accrued pension rights, you will not be able to have access to your Retirement Savings Account to draw monthly pension”.
The Commissioner added that the event would also witness the distribution of Identification Cards to some of the retirees, saying that in no distant future, the retirees would be able to visit hospitals, be given free treatment and also ride on Lagos State Mass Transit buses free of charge on presentation of the Identity Cards.
