Information reaching Viewers Corner News team revealed that some pensioners in Sokoto state (Nigeria) get as low as four thousand Naira per month as pension allowance.These Nigerian Seniors (Pensioners) have been receiving this little amount of money for years, that is if it comes at all. This is as good as nothing in the present day Nigeria. What in God’s name can those Nigerian Seniors (Pensioners) buy with four thousand Naira monthly allowance? This is very surprising, we (Viewers Corner News and the advisory team) understand the pains those Nigerian Seniors (Pensioners) in Sokoto state (Nigeria) are passing through with such little sum of money being paid to them on monthly basis as alleged. We (Viewers Corner News team) are appealing to the Sokoto state government to kindly review the pension allowances of those Nigerian Seniors (Pensioners) in the state and pay nicely to them. Again every other state in Nigeria paying peanut to the Nigerian Seniors (Pensioners) as pension allowance should kindly upgrade to a better pay. These are Nigerian Seniors (Pensioners) who should be very comfortable at their old age, please give them what rightfully belong to them. They deserve it, possibly Nigerian government should let them have free medical facilities added to their pension allowances. It does not cost so much to implement such medical program if it is honestly carried out without those in authority manipulating the system.
