ABSTRACT

The study was carried out to examine the relationship between government pension officers and pension fund administration in Nigeria, examine the effect of budget allocation and pension fund administration in Nigeria pensioners and also to examine the effect of pensioners’ education in pension fund administration in Nigeria. The study adopted the descriptive design and was guided through a self-structured questionnaire administered to 50 pension officers Ekiti. Findings from the study revealed that the government pension officers are not well equipped to properly administer pension fund. The nigerian budget allocation scheme needs to be overhauled to favour pensioners. Budget allocation and pension fund administration has no effect on Nigeria pensioners. Pensioners’ education will have a positive effect on pension fund administration in Nigeria. The study recommends that the government should continue to give adequate analysis to the function of pension scheme adopted and accord it the pride of place in the system. Employee should be recognised and motivated to see their ability and capability as important either towards the future of the organisation or individual life after meritorious service. The structure of the pension package means a lot to the workforce; hence organization should embark on an effective comparative analysis of its pension style before determining how its employees could be compensated. This will help the organisation to retain and attract competent employees and reduce wastage. The contributory pension scheme should be encouraged by its practitioners inform of provision of adequate means of sensitization or interactions such as seminars to continually update organisations and employees’ on the benefits of new scheme and its importance on life after retirement. Regulators of the contributory pension scheme should at interval inspect the operators on prompt payment of retirement benefits to retirees to avoid frivolous deals and where found otherwise, sanction should be desirable to shield competency of the scheme.
