Protesters Block Zainab Ahmed From Office As Finance Minister (Photo) by Success100: 12:10pm On Sep 19, 2018
Members of the Nigeria Airways branch of the Nigeria Union of Pensioners on Tuesday prevented the Acting Minister of Finance, Zainab Ahmed, from gaining entry into her office during a peaceful protest to demand the non-payment of their 14 years' pension arears.

The Minister was forced to alight from her official vehicle when they refused to vacate the gate, to appeal to the protesting senior citizens.

During the protest, the pensioners displayed placards and took over the main gate of the ministry, obstructing human and vehicular movement, particularly the staff who were resuming for duty.

Addressing the protesters, Ahmed asked for time to enable her get appropriate briefing on the issue, and also requested a proper meeting with the leadership of the group so as to agree on a payment schedule that will be mutually convenient.

She stated that the 14-year arears of payment would have accumulated into a huge sum, and might not be easy to liquidate in one payment, hence a mutually agreed mode would be necessary.

The protesters therefore presented a copy of their protest letter to the Minister and vacated the gate to allow her access into the premises.

They demanded the payment of their areas totalling N45.3 billion, which they said had been approved by President Muhammadu Buhari since 2017.

The protesters also asked the Minister to maintain open and continuous contact with the leadership of the union for development and information regarding their pension.

14 years arrears your hero of thieves failed to address and 16 years of PDP did not address this problem. PMB that paid Biafra forces their arreers must not be relected but pdp that failed to solve these challenges must be brought back to power. Last last you be alright.

It only requires common sense to know Saraki was just politicking with his statement. Have you not observed that when the British PM and her German counterpart visited Nigeria, their iteneries involved visiting other countries? Program was planned long time ago before arrival. Are u saying that after they observed that they couldn't communicate with Buhari, they quickly called the next African leader to say HEY WE ARE COMING TO SEE YOU TOMORROW, WE CAN NO LONGER CONTINUE IN NIGERIA. You took a statement from someone desperately seeking the number one seat and you agreed. What about the one day the British PM spent in Kenya. Was it because of same reason Saraki gave?

Double because 14year of pension arrears is = 3 years of APC.

It is a common and no coincidence that TRUMP of all things pick to call Buhari LIVELESS!

If you reside in Nigeria, you will know that TRUMP is not far from the truth!

Buhari as a president which is a second chance has not helped issues in Nigeria in anyway

If he has please feel free to share practical examples if possible pictures, events and location will be ideal!
