class=\"jkit-post-excerpt\"><p>Think-tank Africa Center for Retirement Research (ACRR) has taken a dig at the Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT) for its recent policy to disallow 60-year-olds and above from contributing to the scheme.ACRR described the policy as a disaster, calling for its immediate reversal. This was contained in a statement issued by Executive Director Abdallah Mashud on Monday, March 6. Mr Mashud gave seven reasons why the policy is a disaster. \u201cThe policy if not reversed will adversely affect the success of the Trust\u2019s effort to extend pension coverage to self-employed workers.
