Nigeria Union of Pensioners in Rivers State has pleaded with the state government to fulfill the promise it made to the union when they had a meeting with organised labour in the state few weeks ago.
Secretary of the union in the state, Joseph Agbo made this known in a statement in Port Harcourt.
He said, “When we had a meeting, it was agreed that the issue of pension, including gratuity, non-payment of death benefits; all were included, but until this moment, we don’t know our fate. The committee the government said it will set up; up till now, they have not done it, nothing has been done.”
“We have written to the Secretary to the State Government, requesting an audience so that we can explain our problems because if you are not a pensioner, you would not know much about the problems we face,” he said.
