Retired police officers storm National Assembly, protest contributory pension scheme

Retired police officers on Tuesday stormed the National Assembly to protest their continued inclusion in the Contributory Pension Scheme.

The protesters from 27 states and the Federal Capital Territory are demanding that they should be excluded from the scheme just like their counterparts in the Department of State Services and other security agencies.

They said the scheme was making officers wallow in poverty as they are earning poor pensions after serving the nation for 35 years.
