Pension Directorate to AFUED Prospective retirees : Update your records.

The Deputy Registrar, Directorate of Pension, Staff Welfare, and Statistics (DRDPSWS), Adeyemi Federal University of Education (AFUED) Ondo, Mrs. Ogungbenle Beatrice Eghosa, has advised members of staff listed among those to retire between years 2026 and 2030, to update their records, so as “not to encounter unnecessary delays during the processing of their pensions and retirement benefits”.

Ogungbenle gave the advice in an interactive session organized by the DPSWS for prospective retirees from the University, which was held on Thursday July 9, 2026 at the New Centre for Educational Technology building in the institution.

Describing retirement as “another joyous milestone”, the DRDPSWS, congratulated the prospective retirees and advised them to pay serious attention to what she observed as common causes of delay in pension processing.

She listed the causes of delay to include untimely update of records, problem relating to next-of-kin, discrepancies between date of birth on University record and the National Identification Number (NIN) as well as issues relating to change of Pension Fund Administrator (PFA).

In addition, Ogungbenle also urged the prospective retirees who would be going between years of 2028 and 2030 to contact their PFAs for data recapturing so as to update their records in order to facilitate the processing of their pension and retirement benefits.

On matter relating to academic staff who have attained the rank of Associate Professor before attaining the mandatory retirement age of 65, the DRDPSWS said such staff having being covered with relevant government policy, would be retained in service until they attain 70 years of age.

She, however, stated that those who do not get promoted as Associate Professor before reaching 65 years of age are not eligible for the extension.

Speaking on two available retirement benefit payment options, which she listed as “Programme withdrawal and Annuity”, Ogungbenle said while programme withdrawal is administered by retirees Pension Fund Administrators, the latter (Annuity) is managed by Licensed Insurance Company.

On issues relating to Federal Government Exit Benefit Scheme (EBS), the DRDPSWS, described it as a special financial support package introduced by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu Administration to cushion the effects of retirement before commencement of pension payment.

She explained that the scheme provides beneficiaries with an amount equivalent to one year’s annual salary adding that the payment would not be deducted from the retiree’s retirement savings account neither would it also form part of the pension benefits.

According to her, “the Exit Benefit Scheme (EBS) is a special package provided by the Federal Government to ease financial burden of retirees before their pension becomes fully operational. It is not a deduction from retiree’s savings or pension entitlement”, she stated.

The meeting which held at the New Centre for Educational Technology (CET) in the University was attended by Senior Officials from DPSWS among whom was Mr. Akomolafe Kayode. Also present was Mrs. Ogunleye Funmilayo, an Administrative Officer I and other staff from the Directorate.

Similarly, staff of the Directorate of Information and Public Relations were also in attendance as well as prospective retirees from both Academic and Non-teaching Staff in the University.

Don to students: make effective use of your time

The Deputy Director of the Directorate of Gender and Sustainable Development Studies, Adeyemi Federal University of Education, Ondo (AFUED), Dr. Charles Omotayo, has charged the students of the institution to make effective use of their time by engaging in productive and purposeful activities.

Omotayo gave the charge during a seminar organized by the Directorate of Gender and Sustainable Development Studies titled, "Seminar on Compulsory General Studies on Gender Education (SEA 001, SEO 001 and ENT 211) for Degree I–IV Students," held on Wednesday, July 1, 2026, in the University.

Speaking on the theme, "Youth, Gender and Nigerian Politics," the University Don encouraged students to always position themselves positively in every sphere of life.

He explained that there is no universally accepted definition of youth, noting that different organizations adopt varying age brackets. According to him, Nigeria defines youth as persons between 18 and 35 years, ECOWAS recognizes ages 18 to 35, while the United Nations adopts 15 to 24 years in its statistical framework. He also maintained that the universally recognized biological s*xes are male and female.

Omotayo further stated that politics begins from the departmental level through the faculty and Students' Union Government before extending to the larger society. He stressed that active participation in campus politics offers valuable leadership experience and life skills that remain beneficial after graduation.

He urged students to recognize that youth is a transient stage, advising them to identify their strengths and weaknesses and remain accountable to responsible mentors. He also encouraged female students to participate actively in politics while calling on their male counterparts to support and encourage them.

Also speaking at the seminar, one of the facilitators, the Chief Pharmacist, AFUED, Mrs. Funmilayo Nejo V. delivered a lecture titled "Fundamentals of Human Behaviour and Casual S*x."

She described human behaviour as the potential and expressed capacity of individuals or groups to respond to internal and external stimuli throughout life.

While highlighting the dangers associated with casual s*x among unmarried persons, she cautioned students against casual s*x, cohabitation, r**e, abortion and all forms of s*xual violence.

According to her, such behaviours could result in academic distraction, s*xually transmitted infections (STIs), health complications, unintended pregnancies, psychological trauma and unstable marital relationships later in life.
Another facilitator, CEO of Perez and Peret Ventures, Founder of Yhumbite Bakery and CEO EAP Consulting services, Mr. Orisamuyiwa Dickson, spoke on "Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Venture Creation." He explained that entrepreneurship creates jobs, solves societal problems, generates wealth and drives national development, while innovation promotes new products, improved processes, marketing strategies and business models.

He also outlined the stages of venture creation, including identifying problems, generating ideas, validating business plans, sourcing funds, launching and growing businesses.

Dickson encouraged students to take advantage of entrepreneurial opportunities on campus, listing ventures such as laundry services, printing, graphic design, bread distribution, artificial intelligence services, tutoring, photography and delivery services as viable businesses capable of providing additional income while studying.

The seminar featured interactive sessions, questions from participants and exchange of ideas.

Among those in attendance were the Deputy Director, Directorate of Gender and Sustainable Development Studies, Dr. Charles Omotayo; members of staff of the Directorate, including Mrs. Ewa Ngozika Stella, Mr. Nosiru U. D. and Mr. Oke Samuel A. L.; Also in attendance were the Chief Pharmacist AFUED, Mrs. Funmilayo Nejo V.; the CEO of Perez and Peret Ventures, Founder of Yhumbite Bakery and CEO EAP Consulting services, Mr. Orisamuyiwa Dickson; Principal Communications Officer, Directorate of Information and Public Relations, Mrs. Olagundoye Eniola; Communications Officer II, Directorate of Information and Public Relations, Mr. Samuel Mayowa; as well as students of Adeyemi Federal University of Education, Ondo.
