Abuja, Oct 25, 2023 – The Federal Government will stop payment of salaries of workers who are yet to verify their documents on the Integrated Personnel and Payroll system (IPPIS) by Friday.
A statement from the Office of Head of Service on Wednesday, said this was the directive from Dr Folashade Yemi-Esan, the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation.
The statement issued by her Director of Communications, Mohammed Ahmed, said the two-week verification ultimatum given to the affected workers would lapse on Friday, October 27, 2023.
“Adequate arrangements were put in place for a smooth exercise in designated areas of the FCT, however, the officers’ impatience and lack of orderliness in the first two days made the exercise rowdy.
“This has been duly addressed and the two-week exercise, scheduled to end on Friday, October 27, 2023, is progressing very well.
“The verification of records of all civil servants will be finalised at the end of the ongoing exercise and any officer whose record could not be verified will be delisted from the payroll of government,” the statement read. (GBN)
