Governor, Babajide Sanwoolu to settle all outstanding entitlements of pensioners in the state or face mass protests from members.
The Union gave the ultimatum at its secretariat in Akure, the Ondo State capital, during a south-west council meeting attended by zonal officers, state Chairmen and State Secretaries. The retirees who also accused the Ekiti, Osun and Ogun State governments of shirking their financial responsibilities on gratuities and pension payment, advised the state governors to be compassionate to the senior citizens, as old age hazards and health challenges were bitter experiences among pensioners.
On the controversy surrounding the resumption of some students amidst coronavirus pandemic, the NUP zonal officers advised the government to put in place preventive measures that would allow Primary 6, JSS and SSS 3 students to write theirs exams including WAEC exam.
