PTAD Postpones Resumption Of Pensioners’ Verification  

The agency explained that the postponement is in line with the federal government’s directive on ensuring safe practice of COVID-19 protocols.

“Pensioners under the civil service pension department (CSPD); the police pensions department (PPD); the customs, immigration prisons pension department (CIPPD); and parastatal pension department (PaPD) will be affected by this suspension,” it said.

“We wish to assure all pensioners that have requested for the walk-in verification that they will be contacted and scheduled for the exercise when the walk-in verification resumes.”

PTAD had announced the suspension of its walk-in verification for pensioners on December 10, 2020, and scheduled the resumption for January 19, 2021.

However, there has been fears of a second wave of coronavirus transmission with Nigeria experiencing an upsurge in COVID-19 cases.

The directorate advised pensioners with urgent complaints to send such as emails or upload their complaints using its website’s complaint link.
