Nigerian Pensioners Threaten Nationwide 'Naked Protest' Over Unpaid Benefits
The Coalition of Federal Pensioners in Nigeria has threatened a nationwide 'naked protest' on the 6th if the government fails to implement pension increments and palliative measures. National Chairman Mr. Mukaila Ogunbote announced the protest, citing the government's delay in settling arrears and implementing promised pension increases.
The coalition expressed frustration over the lack of action despite previous approvals, highlighting the disparity between workers and pensioners in receiving benefits. The threat aims to draw attention to the pensioners' grievances and demand swift action from the authorities to address their long-standing financial challenges.
