Retired Police Officers to Protest for Better Benefits at National Assembly

Retired police officers plan a protest at the National Assembly over poor living conditions and pension disparities compared to other security agencies. The chairman of the Kaduna State chapter, CSP Mannir Lawal, highlights the challenges faced by retired officers.

The protest follows a virtual meeting where demands for better benefits were revisited. Justice Halilu Yusuf of the FCT High Court rejected a request by five retired senior police officers accused of age falsification.

The officers seek fair treatment similar to their counterparts in the military and DSS, emphasizing the need for improved pension packages.
