Ogun workers threaten strike over pensions, unpaid deductions

Others were: payment of eight years of leave allowances; restoration of payment of gross salary and the implementation of Consequential Adjustment on Minimum Pension.

‘’On the issue of pensioners, statutory by the Constitution of the Federal Republic, whenever there is wage review, minimum pension is also supposed to be reviewed, but as we speak, that has not been done. ‘’As we speak, some of those pensioners take as low as N5,000 as pension. You can imagine in that old age, even their drugs they buy monthly, some of those drugs are more than N5,000.

‘’We also have accumulated gratuity. We engaged the government and it started paying N500 million every quarter, which is grossly inadequate, bearing in mind the number of people that they need to pay. ‘’So, we are saying that the government needs to upwardly review that quarterly payment, increase it so that a good number of people can receive this money while they are still alive, ‘’ Bankole said.All rights reserved.
