    Must it get to this point before gratuity of people are been paid. My Mum’s last promotion lèvel of 2014 was effected in 2018 after she retired in 2017 and till day, both the arrear of 2014 and gratuity are yet to be paid. The woman has been in and out of hospital with nothing left on her….

    What is the essence of serving the state from a class teacher to vice principal and nothing for it until they hear that pensioners are either sick or dead.
