Pensioners Stage Another Protest In Osun

The alleged non payment of gratuities and pensions of members of the Osun State chapter of the Nigeria Union of Pensioners on Thursday has seen a continuation in the protest in the state.

Hundreds of aged pensioners, who assembled at the Olaiya Junction and armed with placards with various inscriptions, sang anti-government songs as they marched from the area to the state secretariat, which is almost five kilometres away.

Some of the protesters who had walking sticks on them were not stopped by the distance as they booed and jeered at the occupants of a campaign vehicle of the Chief of Staff, Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola, who is the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress in the coming election in the state.

More details soon.
