I know some elderly fellows who contributed in the 1960s, 1970s and in the 1980s, thinking that a sum of Kshs3,000 or Kshs10,000 pension will be a huge sum of money. Today, we know that, that is very little money compared to the value of what they contributed and they are suffering as a result of this."}
