Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has criticized President Bola Tinubu for abandoning retired police officers who are struggling to survive on their pension savings. Atiku demands an answer on the Police Exit Bill and an urgent salary review for serving officers, following a pay increase approved for members of the Armed Forces.
He revealed that retired police officers are resorting to desperate measures like begging at mosques to feed their families. Atiku also highlighted a case where a retired Assistant Commissioner of Police was found selling firewood to buy food. He vowed to act when he assumes office in May 2027, with a Police Dignity Guarantee Plan that includes auditing and settling pension arrears and gratuity claims, establishing a pension floor, providing insured healthcare, and ensuring timely support for officers and their families.
