The Acting Chairman of the NSIWC, Mr Ekpo Nta explained that the Commission has taken necessary steps with regards to the proposals for implementation of the minimum wage for pensioners but the Commission was yet to get the necessary feedback from government.<\/p>\n

However, as a result of the visit by the Chairman MPB, the Acting Chairman of NSIWC promised to intensify efforts at getting necessary approvals from relevant stakeholders so that the Commission can promulgate and release appropriate Circulars for the implementation of the new minimum wage for pensioners generally.<\/p>\n

According to the Public Relations Officer, Military Pensions Board, Flight Lieutenant O Lawal, the board would update military retirees of developments through their respective veteran associations as events unfolds.<\/p>\n
