Lets hope this re organization will translate to addressing the issues of the 2005-2007 retirees who are currently suffering due to the past managements insensitivity to their plight as regards their severance benefits and the call that they be placed on pension like other civil servants.
ReplyDeleteNigeria Ports Authority laid off almost 5000 officers and staff between 2005 and 2007 under the illegal Obsanjo parastatals down sizing exercise,most of them were paid off irrespective of their choice to be put on pension, their over 15 years of service (which normally qualifies one for pension) or the normal civil service condition of service.
ReplyDeletelets hope the new management address this issue with a view to correct this anomaly.
