Kwara Govt deploys cabinet members, technocrats over salary, pension delays complaints

* Troubleshooting session holds between Thurs. July 31 – Aug 4 at LG Hqtrs statewide

Kwara State Government has scheduled a special troubleshooting session to address all pending complaints regarding payment of salary and pension to civil servants and pensioners.

The troubleshooting session will be held daily at each of the 16 local government headquarters in the state between Thursday July 31 and August 4, 2025 — except Sunday, August 3.

“All affected individuals — serving civil servants and pensioners — are required to appear in person with the following documents/details: BVN; NIN; KWSRRA Number; PSN Number; bank account statement; employment letter; work/pension identity card; and other details they consider relevant to resolve their complaints,” according to a statement by the State Commissioner of Finance Dr Hauwa Nuru.

The statement said the session will be led by cabinet members from each of the local government areas and relevant technocrats from various MDAs.

Dr Nuru added that while majority of the civil servants and pensioners have no issues with their salary or pension, we acknowledge that there are isolated cases of individuals who still have pending complaints affecting seamless payment of their salary and pension. This session is to resolve all such pending issues once and for all, in line with the commitment of the Governor that every worker or pensioner deserves their pay at the right time.
