Alhaji Olanrewaju Ishola is a 60 years old retiree the Health Service Commission, Lagos state. He retired in 2011 after 35 years.

Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, has said it will compel employers of labour to maintain group life assurance policies for their employees with a minimum benefit of three times total emolument in line with the provisions of the Pension Reform Act 2014. This was part of the decision reached at the National Executive Council, NEC, of the NLC, held at Enugu, Enugu State.
