 A Tennessee teen girl erupts at school board meeting accusing the board of being cowards for inaction after a board member made very inappropriate remarks. When school board member Keith Ervin singled out Hannah Campbell on April 2nd, grabbing her in an embrace and calling her hot, it gained a lot of attention online, as well as with the media.  Hannah had just finished delivering remarks to the board when Ervin grabbed the student and stated, "God, you're hot. Do you know that? Damn. Where do you go to school?" The entire ordeal was captured on video and done in front of the entire school board and all in attendance. Now, over a month after the uncomfortable incident, Hannah Campbell has spoken up at the most recent school board meeting on Thursday, May 8th. Hannah began by stating that Ervin's actions were not only unwelcome but also s*xist and derogatory.  Hannah went on to voice her disappointment with the school board to take any true action against Ervin.

 LAGOS PENSION COMMISSION PAYS N1.52B TO 798 RETIREES


 

•Pensioners praise govt for prompt payment, welfare of senior citizens


In line with its commitment to the welfare of senior citizens and retirees with dedicated service to the Lagos State Government, the Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu administration on Monday disbursed a total of N1.52 billion to another set of 798 retirees of the Lagos State Public Service.


 

The retirement bond certificates worth a total of ₦1,520,223,053.19 were presented at the 110th Batch Retirement Bond Certificate Presentation Ceremony at Alausa, Ikeja, on Monday. The event was attended by hundreds of retirees who were physically present to collect the bond certificates.


 


Speaking during the ceremony, the Director-General of the Lagos State Pension Commission (LASPEC), Mr. Babalola Obilana, said the gesture underscores Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s commitment to ensuring retirees receive their entitlements without delay. He said Lagos operates a pay-as-you-go pension system, enabling prompt settlement once documentation is completed.


 


He said: “Today’s ceremony is a testament to the commitment of the Lagos State Government towards the well-being and financial security of its workforce. It signifies the fulfilment of obligations under the Contributory Pension Scheme (CPS), ensuring that our dear retirees receive the retirement benefits they have worked hard for throughout their careers.


 


“The Lagos State Government has made significant strides in pension administration over the years despite various challenges. Today, we can proudly say that the CPS in Lagos State is one of the most efficient and well-managed pension systems in the country. The Lagos State Pension Commission (LASPEC) has consistently worked with various stakeholders: the Pension Fund Administrators, Annuity Service Providers, Lagos State Ministries, Departments, Agencies and other relevant bodies to ensure the smooth processing of pension entitlements for all retirees.


 


“I want to thank Mr Governor, Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, for his constant support in ensuring the prompt payment of pension obligations. Today, Mr Governor will be presenting another set of 798 retirees with their retirement bond certificates worth a total of ₦1,520,223,053.19, being their past service benefits prior to the commencement of the Contributory Pension Scheme (CPS) in 2007.”


 


Obilana said LASPEC has remained steadfast in ensuring that pensions are paid on time, noting that the 110th Batch will join a long list of retirees who have received their benefits promptly as part of our commitment to uphold the promise of financial security to public servants.


 


He also advised retirees at the event to plan wisely on how to spend their retirement funds.


 


Speaking on behalf of the retirees after receiving their bond certificates, Mrs Funto Olaitan Aina and Mr Olayinka Ramoni Alaka, expressed gratitude to the government, describing the bond as timely and life-changing.


 


They also commended the Babajide Sanwo-Olu administration for keeping faith with retirees and urged the Lagos State Government to sustain and improve the system for future pensioners.


 


“I am extremely happy. We are receiving our bond. What we have been looking out for is now a reality. We thank the Lagos State Government for making it a reality. When I collect the money, I am going to sit back and think well about what I want to do with it before going out to do whatever. The payment was prompt because I retired last year, and I am getting my bond certificate a year after. So, I want to implore them to continue to do the best,” said Aina, who retired from the Ministry of Environment and Water Resources.


 


Also speaking, Olayinka Ramoni Alaka, who retired last year from Lagos State Public Service, said: “I feel happy receiving my pension today. I am a Town Planner and I am still doing my work. I will add the money to my business and continue with my business. The Lagos State Government has been doing very well. From what I have seen from other states, they have not been paying their pensioners, but Lagos State pays as and when due, and it has been a seamless process.”
