NDIEMA: My name is Ndiema. Please I want to know why a particualr text message is sent to me every five months to confirm whether I am alive.

PTAD: The message was an error. It will be addressed. Thank you.

Please correct the anomalies. I retired 2000. I attended the verification they did at Osogbo. The arrears of harmonisation were paid to me three times this year. Please do everything within your power to help me.
In addition, despite my appeals to PTAD to pay my pension arears, the agency instead of doing the needful removed my name from the pay roll with one circular letter while others in the same category with me are still enjoying the benefits.

According to the circular on the consequential adjustment table, those on grade level 5 were given 51 per cent incremental rate. This means that I will be having N15,504.51 increment monthly, with a total monthly pension of N45,904.51.
When the 12 months’ arrears were paid on May 25, 2021, I received only N59,720.76 instead of N186,054,12.
Painfuly, on June 3, 2021, I was short paid N35,378.59 as my pension instead of N45,904.
Worse still, on July 19, 2021, I was paid N29,860.38 as arrears of six months instead of N93,027.06. I will be grateful if my monthly pension is corrected and the balance of the arrears on the 12 and six months are correctly paid. Thanking you.
PTAD: On correct rate, pensioner misunderstood the application of adjustment increment is based on absolute number and not percentages.
