UNILORIN NASU distributes welfare packages to 40 retirees

Welfare packages worth N8 million was distributed to 40 retired staff members of the University of Ilorin.

ROYAL NEWS reports that the initiative was muted by the union to support their colleagues.

The Chairman of the Non-Academic Staff Union of Universities (NASU), UNILORIN chapter, Mr. Ibrahim Suberu, said the union had done a lot in making sure members enjoyed all benefits of life to the best of their ability.

According to him, “Members of the union formed the largest workforce in the university and had been playing their roles in the development of the set goals by the forefathers of the university. For avoidance of doubt, we shall be paying 40 retirees who are our members and have served the university and the union meritoriously.

“Each of them will go home with N200,000, a little difference from before when we gave N150,000. In fact we are working toward ensuring our members will be going home, after their retirement with more than N500,000.”

The chairman prayed for the repose of the souls of late members of the union as he also remembered all other members still alive.
