Finance Ministry begins ‘mop up’ verification of ex-Nigerian Airways workers

The Ministry said the latest verification will hold simultaneously in Lagos and Kano, to ensure all eligible beneficiaries are audited and paid their entitlements.

Represented by the Deputy Director Procurement, Izerebu John, he said the exercise was in furtherance of the Federal government’s commitment to ensure all former workers of the defunct airways got their benefits. The Nigeria Airways was liquidated in 2004, without its almost 6,000 workers being paid any entitlements.Following continued agitations by the workers for their entitlements, President Muhammadu Buhari in 2018 approved that all audited staff of the organisation should be paid 50 per cent of their severance entitlements.
