CHAPTER ONE
Introduction
post - retirement  is an integral part of a worker’s life. It is regarded as an important stage in human development the world over. People who plan their post - retirement  well in advance adjust well to post - retirement , and they are likely to go through it as a honeymoon phase in which they are quite active or may go through an R and R (Rest and Relaxation) phase of recuperating from stress and strains of employment (Odu, 1998 & Dada & Idowu, 2010).
 
According to Belsky (1990) post - retirement  is a transition from the world of work into a world of less rigorous work activity and rest, especially in respect of post - retirement  due to old age or long years of service.

Workers are not left out of this crossroads and puzzles. Their pay at the end of the month hardly takes them home. They have families to fend and provide for. Their wives and children must eat in order to live. Their children need to go to school and be well educated in order to be well off in life. They need houses of their own. These workers who are still in service are part of the larger society who read, see and watch on the pages of newspapers and in television respectively news of pensioners dying on the queue while waiting to be screened for payment of gratuity and pension; of other retirees waiting for over two years for their pension and gratuity to be processed; fraud by government officials and pension administrators; Pensioners being owed over two years of pension arrears and pensioners threats of committing suicide.
