Some aggrieved workers of the National Pension Commission, under the aegis of Pension Reform Advocacy Group, have petitioned the Senate, expressing opposition to the confirmation of Aisha Dahiru-Umar,
as the substantive Director General of the agency.
However, a group which claimed to be workers of the agency have sent a petition to the office of the Senate President, asking the red chamber to stay further action on her confirmation. The petitioners alleged that apart from the allegation of nepotism, the nominee was not competent for the office. The petition read in part, “Her nomination constitutes an affront on the anti-corruption stance of the Federal Government and transparency in public office.
“There are eminently qualified persons across the nation for the position of PenCom Director General regardless of ethnic, religious and other orientation.”
