The Lagos State Teaching Service Commission (TESCOM) has commenced the Year 2022 Online Pensioners’ Verification Exercise aimed at updating Pensioners’ records with the State Government.

The Chairman of the Commission, Mrs. Olabisi Ariyo disclosed this recently in Ikeja, adding that the annual exercise would also be used to delete details of deceased Pensioners who died during the course of the preceding year and to include the details of those who were deleted from the payroll for non-appearance during the last verification exercise, with the aim of getting their Pension arrears paid.

She affirmed that the exercise is in tandem with the State’s Pensions Policy to annually audit the Pensioners’ list for the purpose of updating their payroll in the Old Pensions Scheme.

Ariyo further stated that this year’s verification will be done virtually in line with the current global practice adding that Pensioners and Senior Citizens must be treated with the utmost respect.

In her words: “As a responsive government, it is our duty to continue to make life more comfortable for Pensioners and Senior Citizens. They have served the State meritoriously and as such, deserve the best treatment. I am optimistic that the virtual verification will be more convenient especially for those in the diaspora, as they will be verified from the comfort of their homes”.

The Chairman noted that the exercise will also give ailing Senior Citizens the opportunity to participate without much stress, adding that Pensioners are encouraged to make video calls for verification via the following Whatsapp lines: 08096742362, 09136559047, 09127091612, 08136197966.
