She said the repatriation of the fund was made possible by the approval of President Muhammadu Buhari after series of meetings between PTAD Management, Office of the Accountant-General of the Federation and the CAIM.

Ejikeme said that the funds would be used to settle parts of the accrued arrears owed to its pensioners worth over N120 billion.

“This development is indeed a very happy and welcomed one for our senior citizens.”
