This was revealed by the Director-General of PenCom, Aisha Dahir-Umar, in Abuja on Thursday at the interactive session on 2022-2025 MTEF and FSP, organised by the Senate Committee on Finance.
She said delayed payment of accrued rights would soon be a thing of the past as the government was making frantic efforts to clear the backlog of accrued rights.
