Newsfront Online …Telling the Public as it is
The National Pension Commission (PenCom) is ready to open its books for scrutiny, the Director-General, Mrs. Aisha Dahir-Umar, has said.
“Although some low-level media outfits (not this newspaper) are giving a voice to these defamatory petitions, those who know how we conduct our affairs at PenCom are not in any way bothered. Since I took over as the DG, we have undertaken far-reaching reforms within the organisation which are yielding positive results.”
Describing the era of “anything goes” as long dead and buried, she said: “Those who think they can use the commission to make money or that they should be the ones calling the shots are bitterly disappointed and are sponsoring false publications and trumped-up petitions. We will cooperate fully with the agencies. Our message to the disgruntled elements today is exactly as it was yesterday: we will not allow anyone to pilfer pension funds for self-aggrandisement. It will never happen under my watch.”
