Ogun State Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, has been described as one of the few governors in Nigeria that takes good care of pensioners.
National President of the Nigeria Union of Pensioners (NUP), Dr. Abel Afolayan, who stated this at the official commissioning of the NUP, Ogun State Council secretariat, appreciated the governor for what he described as his “kind gestures towards pensioners in Ogun State.”
He expressed delight over the progress of the union in the state in particular and the Southwest generally.
Amosun, in his response, assured pensioners in the state that his administration would continue to accord their welfare priority, adding that “we would make sure that we continue to pay the pensions of our retirees regularly.”
He enjoined the pensioners to join hands with the government “to fulfil the dreams of our forefathers.”
