PTAD: Resolving pensioners’ issues
admin
Annonmous: Good day, I write on behalf of Nathaniel, a pensioner. PTAD has not paid me the correct amount to my grade level 08/15 since I started receiving pension. I am appealing to PTAD to pay all allowances to my grade level from June 2010 till date. I am an old man now so it is not easy for me to travel from Kogi to Abuja. Please, have pity on me to pay all my allowances including my gratuity which is short paid at the moment.
PTAD: Dear Mr. Abubakar Nathaniel, please send your verification slip to our email complaints@ptad.gov.ng to enable us to deal. Thank you.
IRIOGBE: Dear Omobola, It is alleged that 30per cent of pensioners under PTAD (DBS) have been paid the N32,000 each which the government approved as minimum wage effective July 29, 2024. If this is true, I would like to know the yardsticks used in paying them while others are left out? Does it mean others yet to be paid are now regarded as second class citizens? The arrears as at today, has gone to nine months. I have no doubt that the 2025 budget signed into law by the president will cover the payments of the new minimum wage or the arrears. The government should therefore, release enough funds to PTAD to pay us early.PTAD: Dear Mr. IRIOGBE, kindly note that all pensioners are the same as far as PTAD is concerned. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. However, the increment of arrears will be paid as soon as funds for that purpose are made available by the FG. Thank you.
DSP ATAKAH: Hello, I am Rtd DSP Yohanna. I retired in 2006. In July 2015, I was paid my gratuity and placed on monthly pension without the nine years pension arrears. I noticed my step was reduced. i was confirmed ASP in 1997 and promoted DSP in 2003 (step 7). PTAD staff asks me to provide my promotion letters including statement of account which I produced to them. They checked and told me that they made a mistake. They gave me a form and I filled it in March 2000. I was paid N3 million out of the nine years pension arrears. I shall be grateful if PTAD treat my complaint. Thank you.
ALEXANDER: Dear Omobola, my name Alexander, retiree of Power Holding Company Nigeria. I discovered in my career table that l was wrongly placed on grade level 08/step/11 instead of my correct retirement grade level 08/step/13. Incremental date is First January 2012.
PTAD: Dear Mr. Alexander, please forward your last promotion letter to our email complaints@ptad.gov.ng as we discussed on the phone. Kindly take note that based on the documents you provided during your verification, you are currently on your correct grade level. Thank you.
