The Federal Government on Friday, explained why civil servants are yet to receive their June 2025 salaries.
The Office of the Accountant General of the Federation (OAGF) said it is aware of complaints regarding the delayed payment of June 2025 salaries by some personnel, especially those whose accounts are domiciled with Zenith Bank Plc.
In a statement issued by Bawa Mokwa, the Director of Press and Public Relations, the OAGF said its investigations show that the salary payments for employees across various Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) were affected due to a technical network glitch during the processing of salaries at the bank.
Mokwa biter that the OAGF understands the anxiety and frustration this situation has caused, particularly given the importance of timely salary payments to the livelihoods and responsibilities of our valued public servants.
He also expressed FG’s regrets for the inconvenience caused by the delayed payment of salaries while assuring the workers of efforts to solve the challenge.
He said, “The Office is currently working closely with the relevant service providers and stakeholders to ensure that the failed payments are reprocessed without further delay. We appeal to all affected staff of the Federal Public Service to remain calm and rest assured that no effort will be spared in ensuring everyone receives their rightful salaries.
“Concrete steps have already been taken to isolate the problem and arrangements are underway to reprocess the failed payments in the shortest possible time. The welfare of Federal Government employees remains a top priority of the Office,” Mokwa stated.
He further assured that FG remains committed to transparency, accountability, and efficiency in all payroll operations and is open to continuous engagement with stakeholders to ensure sustained improvements in our service delivery.
