The Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSITF) and the Association of Senior Staff of Banks, Insurance and Financial Institutions (ASSBIFI) and the National Union of Banks, Insurance and Financial Employees (NUIBFIE) have resolved key issues in an industrial dispute. The Permanent Secretary invited the parties to a conciliation meeting, where most issues were resolved. Unremitted pensions and NHF deductions will be remitted in 15 months. However, a Memorandum of Understanding was not signed due to disagreements over union demands.
