Pensioners demand implementation of pay rise

Date: 2013-11-18

The Local Government Pensioners' Association of Nigeria (LGPAN) in Kwara State has demanded the implementation of the government's pay rise.

It added that the salary review carried out by the government in 2007, 2010 and 2013 were yet to reflect in their pay.

LGPAN claimed that its counterparts in ministries, departments and agencies in the civil service had been enjoying theirs since August 2011.

In a statement, the association's Chairman and spokesperson, Isiaka Akanbi and Ademola Ajibade, accused the local government pension board of delay.

"We note with concern the delay by the Pension Board, although a negotiation committee has been constituted to appraise and consider the pensioners' demands.

"Another striking damage caused by the non-implementation of the pension harmonised increase is the disparity between local government pensioners, who retired years ago and those recently retired, whose benefits are calculated on the basis of the contentious salary increase circulars of 2007, 2010 and 2011.

"The association perceives the delay of the pension increase harmonisation as a dangerous trend."
