The Management of Pension Transitional Arrangement Directorate (PTAD) said it has received the Management Team of New Nigerian Newspaper (NNN) led by its Ag. Managing Director, Maruf A. Ibrahim on a courtesy visit to PTAD Executive Secretary, Sharon Ikeazor.
According to a statement today by PTAD, “The visit was to appreciate the Executive Secretary for the timely intervention of the Directorate in placing New Nigerian Pensioners on monthly pension.”

The NNN officials, the statement stated, expressed happiness at the speed at which PTAD was able to resolve, compute and pay their pensioners. They acknowledged the competence and diligence of PTAD staff inputting the pensioners first.
PTAD had in October placed 470 New Nigerian Newspaper Pensioners on monthly pension payment for life.
“The Directorate has also advised those who have not received their payments to contact their bankers while PTAD re-present the 23 failed payments which is largely due to Pensioners inactive accounts.
“The Team was assured that Government will soon set up an Inter-Ministerial Committee to look into and dispense with the issue of pension arrears that has accumulated over the years. Also,the payment to the 109 NoKs is being computed and they will be contacted once the funds are released,” the statement added.
