The Chairman of the PTF, Boss Mustapha, said no pensioner was being owed and that there was no infringing on the rights of almajiris that were moved to their states.

He said,

“The Managing Director of Federal Mortgage Bank said no pensioner is being owed. They have been paid till April 2020.

“It was the decision of the Northern Governors Forum to move them (almajiris). Most of them are minors. Every government has a responsibility given to it to provide for the welfare of its citizens.”

Mustapha also said that despite the FG’s efforts in the past one month, a lot still needed to be done.

He said,

“Over the last four weeks, we made appreciable progress, but we are not out of the woods because a lot more is required to be done. Nigerians at all levels must take responsibility for our actions, adopt behavioural modifications, ensure compliance with advisories and provide guidance to our followers and youths.”
