Senator Kariya at a ministerial press briefing in Bauchi yesterday did not however mention the gratuities backlog owed retirees, but said the backlog was over N20 billion.

“The board processes the files of civil servants billed for retirement. In other words, we are the custodian of processed files of all the state civil servants who retired from service,” he said.

Senator Adamu said in order to avoid further accumulation of pensions and gratuity liabilities, the state government intends to commence the implementation of the proposed contributory pension scheme from June 30, 2021.

“As a sign of commitment, Governor Bala Mohammed appointed a 20-member committee including a staff member of Premium Pensions Ltd for technical guidance under the chairmanship of Mr Abdon Dalla Gin (Special Adviser on Civil Service Matters)”.
