Tuesday, July 22, 2025 - A retired police officer has lamented over poor remunerations given to him since he retired from active duty in the Nigerian police force .
Retired police officers and other activists on Monday in a
protest in Abuja, demanded better welfare and an immediate exit from the
contributory pension scheme.
The demonstration, led by the Nigerian Union of Retired
Police Officers, commenced at the National Assembly Complex and ended at the
Force Headquarters.

calling it “discriminatory” and “exploitative,” and alleged that many of their
colleagues had died without receiving their full retirement benefits.
