Nigeria's Pension Assets Hit N25 Trillion, Benefiting 10 Million Workers

The Director-General of PenCom revealed that Nigeria's pension assets have exceeded N25 trillion, benefiting 10 million workers under the contributory pension scheme. Recent initiatives, including Pension Revolution 2.0, aim to improve retiree welfare and efficiency.
