"Why The Government Paid Us #4000" - Pensioners

Daniel Oluwole


Retirees in Northern Nigeria, especially in the North-Central region, are facing severe financial hardship, with some receiving as little as 4,000 to 5,000 Naira monthly after decades of service to the country.

Despite their years of hard work and sacrifice, these pensioners are not receiving the expected benefits, leading to a widespread sense of injustice. 

In this episode of Nigeria Daily, the issue of inadequate pension payments is explored, raising questions about the government's responsibility and what is being done to address the crisis.
