Pension Arrears: Edo Invites Pensioners In Batches 43, 44 For Verification, Payment

The Edo State Government has invited pensioners in batches 43 and 44 for physical and documentary verification in order to process payment of their pension arrears.

Recall that Governor Godwin Obaseki, in his Workers' Day address, approved the sum of N1.5billion from the Paris Fund refund to defray outstanding pension arrears, which accumulated for a period of 20 years.

In a statement, Permanent Secretary and Chairman, Pension Bureau, I.D. S. Juwobor, said that the exercise is in continuation of payment of pension arrears by the state government, as the affected pensioners will be paid their arrears after the exercise.

According to him, “In continuation of the on-going payment of pension arrears for State Government pensioners, all pensioners in batches 43 and 44 are hereby invited to present themselves for physical and documentary verification at the Imaguero Hall, Benin City, on Thursday, May 24th and Friday 25th May, 2018 at 9:00am each day.

He urged pensioners in batches 37, 38, 39, 40 and 41, who failed to participate in the previous verification exercises to “take advantage of the scheduled forthcoming screening exercise alongside pensioners in batches 43 and 44.”

He added, “In furtherance of this, affected pensioners are advised to: check the list of pensioners in the batches indicated above at the office of the Head of Service on Tuesday 22nd and Wednesday 23rd May, 2018. They are to come to the venue of the verification exercise with the following: pension authority, retirement letter, letter of first appointment, pension identity card, biometric slip and bank details including bank name and account number.

“Upon conclusion of the verification exercise, the outstanding pension arrears will be credited into the pension account of each pensioner after due documentation by relevant agencies involved in the payment process.”

Good question.

I believe families can still process it, with the proper documents from the deceased of course.

if u have someone close 2u who is a pensioner, u will no that its just lies. D so called verification exercise has taken place several times. Its a never ending process of verification. D last one done last year entailed collecting work history, civil service documents, and biometrics of pensioners and their next of kin yet they are still asking 4 another verification.

Just imagine how the pensioners have been surviving all these years of Governor Lucky and Adam. This is the reason I will only work for the government for 10-15 years, raised money and be my own boss.
Lucky bad luck COLLECT SLAP.
ADAM EVE. COLLECT SLAP+KICK bc during your time the money was flowing like honey.
OBASEKE COLLECT MARKET FAVOUR.

Why do they always love putting these elderly pensioners through untold hardships? Every time verification and all what not. Why not just credit their accounts directly and allow them have some peace. PVNs tied to their accounts should serve as enough verification.
