Group Asks Saraki To Refund All Money, Collected As Pension


A socio-political group, Kwara Mass Movement (KMM), called on the President of the Senate, Dr. Bukola Saraki, to return all monies he had collected as pension from the state government.

National Coordinator of the group, Mr. Salmon Jawondo, made the call in Ilorin on Thursday while briefing the media on “the state of the State’’.

“We watched with great consternation the twist in the pension policy for former governors in the state which had benefitted Dr. Bukola Saraki in no small way. Saraki served as the governor of Kwara State from 2003 to 2011.

According to Saraki’s media aide, he wrote to stop his pension in August 2015 after he benefitted from it for a period of four years,” he said.

Jawondo said that the moral burden on the senate president was for him to return all the benefits, including houses car and cash, to the state.
