NOA and PTAD Collaborate for Grassroots Pension Sensitization

The National Orientation Agency (NOA) and the Pension Transitional Arrangement Directorate (PTAD) have forged a partnership aimed at enhancing grassroots awareness on pension-related issues.

In a meeting held at the NOA headquarters, Director-General Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu and a delegation led by PTAD Executive Secretary Dr. Chioma N. Ejikeme, deliberated on leveraging NOA’s established platforms to amplify pension awareness.

Mallam Issa-Onilu expressed satisfaction that PTAD recognized NOA’s capacity and nationwide reach for grassroots sensitization.
