The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) Pensions Limited says its ongoing stakeholder engagement drive is aimed at building trust, addressing misconceptions, and providing practical solutions to issues affecting police officers’ retirement benefits.

This was contained in a statement issued by the company in Abuja on Friday.

According to the statement, the management of NPF Pensions recently embarked on an extensive pension sensitisation exercise across the South-West geopolitical zone, covering Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Ondo and Ekiti states.

The exercise reached over 1,500 officers, including senior police personnel such as Commissioners of Police and Assistant Inspectors-General (AIGs).

Dr Kolade Morakinyo, Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of NPF Pensions Limited, said the initiative reflects the company’s customer-centric philosophy and commitment to deepening stakeholder engagement.

He said the sessions provided opportunities for one-on-one interactions aimed at reinforcing trust, strengthening relationships, and improving understanding of the Contributory Pension Scheme (CPS) among police personnel.

“This is part of our ongoing drive to improve service delivery and drive digital transformation in our operations.

“Technology remains a top priority for us, and we continue to leverage it to deliver unparalleled service to police officers nationwide,” Morakinyo said.

He noted that NPF Pensions had consistently maintained industry leadership in terms of return on investment, delivering over 38 per cent in 2024 alone.

He reaffirmed the company’s commitment to continued collaboration with the National Pension Commission (PenCom) and the police management team to secure improved welfare packages for officers upon retirement.

Morakinyo encouraged officers who had not yet transferred their Retirement Savings Accounts to NPF Pensions Limited to do so in order to benefit from enhanced retirement packages currently under development.

He also urged all officers to promptly notify the company upon promotion so that their records could be accurately updated. (NAN)
