The Nigeria Union of Pensioners (NUP), South-West zone, has vowed to drag state governments to court over their failure to implement approved pension increases and settle outstanding entitlements, despite repeated ultimatums. He listed the outstanding entitlements to include a 142 per cent pension increase approved about 15 years ago; 33 per cent, 30 per cent and 50 per cent adjustments; the 20 per cent across-the-board increase approved in 2024; and the ₦32,000 across-the-board increment approved in September 2024. He also appealed to NUP members in the South-West to remain united, while raising concerns over internal disputes in Ekiti State. “Apart from Ekiti State, where some dissidents have formed an association not recognised by law, there is unity across the zone. He reaffirmed the NLC’s commitment to pensioners’ welfare, stressing that the labour centre would continue to push the demands of retired workers alongside those of the active workforce.
