Abia State pensioners demand Governor Otti reconsider illegal MoU on unpaid gratuities and pension arrears.

Abia State pensioners, represented by the Abia Pensioners' Forum, have called on Governor Alex Otti to reconsider his Memorandum of Understanding concerning their unpaid gratuities and pension arrears. They argue that the agreement, perceived as illegal and exploitative, only guarantees partial payments, contradicting Otti's campaign promise to resolve the issue by December 31, 2023. The Forum claims the Nigeria Union of Pensioners lacked authority to forfeit their rights.
