‘Migration To PTAD Won’t Affect Pension Payment’
Chairman, National
Population Commission (NPC), Mr Eze Duruheoma, has allayed fears that the movement of its pensioners to the Pension Transitional Arrangement Directorate (PTAD) would affect the pensioners’ monthly payment.
The chairman said this at the inauguration of the National Population Commission Pensioners Association (NPCPA) in Abuja, recently.
Duruheoma explained that PTAD was created by the Federal Government as part of efforts to sanitise the pension payment system, stressing that the commission was working towards ensuring a smooth transition.
He said the commission had already started the process of incorporating its system into PTAD, stressing that the welfare of its pensioners remained paramount.
“The Federal Government has made efforts to sanitise the pension payment system through the setting up of a Pension Transitional Arrangement Department (PTAD) that will eventually harmonise the payment system.
“The board of trustees of the National Population Commission Pension Board has undertaken a verification exercise to fulfil their requirements in respect of the data base and other pension details.
“The National Population Commission will ensure that our pensioners have a smooth migration to the new system,’’ he said.
Duruheoma assured pensioners that the commission would always protect the interest of its retirees even when issues of pension were moved to PTAD.
He said the inauguration of the NPC pension association would afford management the opportunity to constantly interact with its former staff on issues affecting its development.
Earlier, the chairman of the NPC pension board, Mr Moses Ekpo, said the inauguration of the NPC pension association would help address some of the challenges facing pensioners.
On his part, Chairman of the pension association, Malam Lawal Suleiman, thanked the commission for keeping to its promise of upholding the welfare of its staff.
