PENCOM: Retired police officers petition FG

 The Association of Retired Police Officers in Kogi State has appealed to Federal Government & police authorities to discontinue them from the contributory pension scheme, saying it is retrogressive.

Alex Yusuf, Kogi chairman of the association made known their position at a press conference in Lokoja.

He said that rather than improving the status of the pensioners the scheme had further impoverished them.


It will be recalled that the Kwara state chapter of the Association also held a peaceful protest on the same subject recently.
