The Federal Government has declared lecturers yet to be captured in the newly introduced Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System(IPPIS) won’t be paid February salary.

It also disclosed that about 55 percent members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has so far registered in IPPIS.

The Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Hajiya Zainab Ahmed stated these while addressing reporters at the opening of the 2020 Management Retreat for Treasury Directors of Finance and Directors of Internal Audit in Kano on Thursday.

“Unfortunately most reforms that you undertake you come across resistance. We have had resistance from ASUU on the implementation of the IPPIS and I am happy to report that at least up to 55 percent of ASUU members are registered and the ones that are not are not getting their February salary,” the minister declared.
Speaking on the need for the IPPIS system, the minister said it has helped in identifying over 70,000 ghost workers in the Federal civil service and is hoping to make the system free of ghost workers in future.

“It is in eliminating ghost workers because you register on the IPPIS using biometrics and we are currently working with the office of the head of service to link up the IPPIS HR management module with the payroll itself. It will help us better maximise the efficiency of the system.

“I know that we have up to 70,000 ghost workers that have been identified in this process and we hope that we will come to a time when we will say that we have no ghost workers,” she stated.

Appears you've been away from the country or perhaps you've been skipping the news each time the government made it known that as employers of labour they would determine payment schemes and the IPPIS would be the way to go.

This is government work not private business. Government is you and I. There are stakeholders that constitutes the education system. Government alone cannot determine everything. ASUU haf made perculiar demands to Government about this Ippis thing since 2013 which the Govt is yet to address.
This is a union o intellectuals and should be carried along

I'm surprised that you've not known ASUU's stand till now. ASUU is not ssanu or naat that will succumb easily to salary stoppage wahala. You think ippis will benefit our university system

Annual drama from ASUU and FG

Fingers crossed watching how it will Play out

Yes it will.

Nigeria and ASUU have maintained a payment regime for generations.

I'm sure we can see the excellent result it has given over ther years.
