Dr. Chioma Ejikeme’s confirmation for a second four-year term as the Executive Secretary of the Pension Transitional Arrangement Directorate (PTAD) marks a pivotal moment, reinforcing her influential role in steering the management of Defined Benefit Pensions. Grateful for the opportunity, she extends appreciation to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, underscoring her commitment to advancing PTAD’s objectives.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ejikeme’s expressions of gratitude extend beyond the presidency, encompassing the heartening support from pensioners and stakeholders, conveyed through tweets, messages, and newspapers. This collective acknowledgment signifies a shared commitment and collaboration that forms the bedrock of PTAD’s operational success, emphasizing its indispensable role in pension management and its positive impact on retirees’ lives.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Highlighting the strides made in the past decade, Ejikeme underscores PTAD’s distinctive approach marked by innovation, efficiency, and technology-driven service delivery. The organization’s track record of ensuring regular and arrears payments, addressing inherited liabilities, and introducing initiatives like the ‘I Am Alive Verification’ program cements its reputation for transparent and effective service provision.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
However, Ejikeme candidly addresses areas requiring additional attention and resolution. Pending issues such as Next of Kin (NOKs) payments, unresolved inherited liabilities, pension harmonization, constitutional five-year pension increments, and the full implementation of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) for pensioners emerge as critical focal points demanding dedicated efforts.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Her commitment to tackling these pending issues, refining processes like the ‘I Am Alive Verification’, and unwavering dedication to pensioners’ welfare align with PTAD’s ongoing pursuit of heightened service delivery and support. Dr. Ejikeme’s pledge to diligently address these concerns and build upon prior achievements serves as a testament to the organization’s resolute dedication to the well-being of pensioners and stakeholders alike.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
