Veteran Actor All Smiles As He Finally Receives This From Anambra Govt | Photos

Thursday 14 September 2017

Legendary Nollywood actor, Chief Pete Edochie, who retired as the Director of Programmes at the ABS in 1998, has finally received his gratuity from the Anambra state government.

Some retirees of Anambra Broadcasting Service (ABS) on Wednesday, received their long outstanding gratuities from the office of the Anambra state Accountant General.

Former Director General of the organisation who retired in 1984, Boniface Offokaja, was among the recipients, while Nollywood legend, Chief Pete Edochie, who retired from ABS as Director of Programmes in 1998, was also a recipient, and was full of praise for Governor Willie Obiano for fulfilling his promise to clear outstanding pension and gratuities of the organisation.

After receiving his cheque, he said; “Many of us have lost hope that we will ever receive our gratuities. Despite our meritorious service to Anambra state, successive governments chose to neglect us. What Governor Willie Obiano has done today is remarkable. We are praying for him because he is a compassionate governor.”

Responding, the Managing Director and CEO of Anambra Broadcasting Service, Nze Uche Nworah said that Governor Obiano has lifted a huge burden off the shoulders of the organisation.

He said; “We are delighted that today, some of our retirees including those who retired since 1984 have today received their outstanding gratuities. We thank Governor Obiano for making this possible.”

The next batch of retirees will be paid in October.
