The Nigerian Government has released the sum of N13.89 billion for payment of accrued pension rights to retirees who left the public service in 2022.

A statement by the National Pension Commission (PenCom) states that the pension payment is for retirees in treasury-funded Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs).

The Commission promised that it is processing remittances into the various Retirement Savings Accounts (RSAs) of the affected retirees while their Pension Fund Administrators (PFAs) are expected to notify such retirees at the appropriate time.

PenCom commended President Muhammadu Buhari for his unwavering commitment towards effective implementation of the Contributory Pension Scheme (CPS) in Nigeria to ensure better life for retirees.

3 Congratulations to 3 Men of History

It’s a season of divine victories for Nigeria! A victorious season that began with peaceful conduct of presidential election on Saturday, March 28, 2015 and equally peaceful handover of political power to another political party at the centre.
