The National Judicial Council has raised the alarm over repeated attempts by some fraudsters to defraud retired judicial officers of their pensions.
The council claimed that the fraudsters had been bombarding retired judges with phone calls demanding various sums of money to help them fast-track the payment of their retirement benefits.
In a statement on Sunday, the NJC Director of Information, Soji Oye, distanced the council from the actions of the alleged fraudsters and urged retired judicial officers to be wary so as not to fall victim to these unscrupulous elements.
Oye said, “The attention of the National Judicial Council has been drawn to the incessant phone calls being made to retired judicial officers by some unscrupulous individuals demanding payments to fast-track the processing of their retirement benefits.
“The National Judicial Council, by this medium, informs retired judicial officers and members of the public to disregard such phone calls as the NJC would never demand money from any judicial officer to fast-track the payment of his retirement benefits.
