The
indefinite suspension of the pioneer Executive Secretary and Director General of the
Pension Transitional Arrangement Directorate (PTAD), Mrs. Nellie Mayshak and
three other senior staff of the directorate, has been confirmed by the Federal Ministry of Finance, reports ITRealms.
Confirming this in a press statement made available to ITRealms, the Special Assistant (SA) on Media to the Honourable Minister
of Finance, Mr. Festus Akanbi,
said that Mayshak was placed on suspension by the Honourable Minister of
Finance, Mrs. Kemi Adeosun and a director from the Office of the
Accountant-General of the Federation has since been appointed as acting Executive
Secretary and Director General.
ITRealms also said that the suspension, which is a normal
civil service procedure is to pave way for an unimpeded investigation into the
activities of the directorate under the watch of Mrs Mayshak.
While the Ministry assures pensioners that the suspension
will not affect pension payment and services, it promises to make public, the
findings of the investigative panel on the issues leading to the suspension.
ITRealms recalls that PTAD was established in August 2013
under the Pension Reform Act of 2004 to oversee the management of pensions
under the defined benefit scheme for pensioners not transiting to the defined
contributory scheme.
