Some Nigerian Airways pensioners are happy and thankful to Buhari for paying them, their entitlement denied them by previous governments especially former president Olusegun Obasanjo. They thank President Buhari for remembering them, the hurled curses at Former President Obasanjo calling him a wicked man that God will reward in his own evil coins.
The airline, which started flight operations in August 1958, was liquidated by former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s government in May 2003 with the workers yet to be fully paid their entitlements.
The Minister of Finance, Mrs Zainab Ahmed, had on September 24 announced that President Muhammadu Buhari had approved the release of the funds for the part-payment of the ex-workers being owed N45 billion.
Jibodu said that the approval of the payment was greeted with joy by the ex-workers who expressed their gratitude to the president and the minister at the meeting.
The pensioners were jubilating, singing and praising Buhari and Ahmed for finally bringing succour to them following the approval of the payment.
