Although the Contributory Pension Scheme currently addresses several of the shortcomings of previous Nigerian pension schemes, current PFAs have been unable to fully address the peculiarities of the Police Force. An example is the reconciliation of police personnel data which is crucial for obtaining pension contributions from the CBN and for effective pension administration.
As a result, the Federal Government of Nigeria approved that members of The Nigeria Police Force should continue to be covered under the CPS, with a proviso that a Pension Fund Administrator be incorporated that will cater to the unique needs of the Police and by so doing, effectively manage their pension and other welfare issues such as the Group Life Assurance and Health Insurance Schemes.
