Ademola Adeleke, the governor of Osun State, has issued an order requiring the immediate payment of pension benefits as specified in the template made public earlier this year.

Mallam Olawale Rasheed, the governor’s spokesman, stated this in a press release.

When Adeleke received thought leaders who had come to honour him for Sallah, he said this. He emphasised that he had spoken with the pensioners several times and reaffirmed his commitment to taking care of their issues in line with his campaign promises.

The Governor pointed out that the earlier-issued template for paying back unpaid salaries and pensions is still in effect, and he subsequently gave the State Head of Service instructions to speed up implementation by making sure that pension arrears are paid in accordance with the template.

 

“The template was created with an eye on gradually clearing the salary and pension debts,” the communiqué stated. This was done in recognition of the state’s financial situation, which has been well-documented and is widely known. Within a limited budget, our administration is focused on addressing the various needs of the state.

“However, our administration prioritises the welfare of all employees, including those who are in and out of service. I reiterate our dedication to ensuring the welfare of our pensioners, who are senior citizens. I can assure our pensioners that they will not and cannot be forgotten because the phased payments are a standby directive.

Adeleke added that his administration is almost finished with a plan to enrol the pensioners in the public health insurance programme in order to take care of their medical requirements.

“Our administration is making great efforts to enrol pensioners in health insurance. Senior citizens require ongoing medical care. We believe enrolling them is the best course of action because it will lessen the burden of care during their retirement.

“We are addressing the specifics. We will release it for immediate implementation once it is finished, the governor promised.
