1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
In the old Nigeria pension system, only public sector employees were covered, by way of statutory compulsion. The first public sector pension scheme in Nigeria was the pension ordinance of 1951, with retroactive effect from January 1, 1946. The law allowed the governor general to grant pens ions and gratuities in accordance with the regulations, which were reviewed from time to time with the approval of the secretary of state for colonial affairs in the UK government.
