The Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Mrs. Didi Esther Walson-Jack, OON, mni, was a special guest at the event. The Director General of PenCom, Omolola Oloworaran, emphasized that while 26 States have enacted pension reform laws, only 7 States, together with the FCT, are fully implementing the Contributory Pension Scheme.

The session provided a platform for meaningful engagement, knowledge sharing, and collaboration towards strengthening pension reform implementation at the sub-national level. Discussions focused on practical support, the benefits of the reforms, and addressing key challenges affecting adoption across the states.

A continued effort by PenCom to deepen pension reform implementation and promote a more sustainable pension system nationwide.
