Edo State, Lagos, Kaduna and eight other states as well as the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), are the only states that are fully implementing the contributory pension scheme, the federal government has said. A publication by the nation’s apex pension regulator, the National Pension Commission (PenCom), listed the other states as, Ogun, Osun, Ekiti, Ondo, Delta, Anambra, Rivers, Jigawa and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). PenCom said Kebbi and Zamfara states are remitting only the Employee portion of pension contributions while Kwara, Benue, Cross River, Akwa Ibom, Plateau, Bauchi, Katsina and Borno states are still at the Bill stage of the contributory pension scheme implementation. Edo State was one of the early birds to enact a Pension Law following the repeal of the 2004 Pension Reformed Act in 2014, and thereafter commenced the remittance of the employer and employee contributions. The participation of state governments in the contributory pension scheme is in line with the provisions of the Pension Reformed Act 2014, a product of the repealed Pension Reformed Act 2004. The Pension Reformed Act 2014 makes it mandatory for states and local governments to implement contributory pension schemes for their employees. PenCom said the federal government reformed the pension scheme in response to the challenges that plagued the Defined Benefit Schemes in the public sector and the different pension schemes that existed in the private sector. http://thebellng.com/contributory-pension-only-edo-govt-11-others-fully-remitting-pension-contributions-fg/ 5 Likes 4 Shares

I think from this we can get a glimpse of the states that a viable and functional, and those that are not. It is high time some states are merged with some to make this country move forward. Nigeria we hail thee... 4 Likes |

frayozzz: I support your view. States that are not up-and-doing should be merged so that they can pull their resources together, and the outstanding ones like Edo and others should be left to stand. 2 Likes |

Have you keenly observed that Edo, Delta, and Anambra capitals lie on a stretch? Another irony is that the 3 governors all have their surnames beginning with later O.. Can anybody explain that? 1 Like |

A big KUDOS to Anambra, Delta, Edo, Ekiti, FCT, Jigawa, Kaduna, Lagos, Ogun, Ondo, Osun and Rivers state governors. Other governors should not complain when their citizens and workforce act against them in the future. These governors obviously appreciate the need to be responsible for the welfare of their people, both for the present and for the future. |
