She advised the retirees not to allow anyone force them into opting for a particular type of exit option between Programmed Withdrawal and Annuity, rather, they should think deeply about any type that will suit their needs before taking a decision.The Agency in the month of July also released insured death benefit cheques amounting to over N30 million to 24 beneficiaries/ Next of Kin of deceased employees.
