The Office of the Accountant General of the Federation (OAGF) has said that its inability to pay the June 2025 salary to employees across various Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) was due to a technical glitch during the processing of salaries into accounts domiciled with a deposit money bank.
The OAGF in a statement to the public said it is aware of the recent complaints regarding the non-receipt of salaries by some personnel especially those whose accounts are domiciled with Zenith Bank Plc.
“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,” the statement added.
Bawa Mokwa, Director (Press and Public Relations) at the OAGF conveyed the apology.
His statement adds: “We deeply regret the inconvenience this unfortunate incident has caused and wishes to assure all affected employees that immediate steps have been taken to resolve the issue. 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”.
Mokwa said concrete steps have already been taken to isolate the problem and arrangements are underway to reprocess the failed payments in the shortest possible time as the welfare of Federal Government employees remains a top priority of the Office.
The OAGF, he stated remains fully committed to transparency, accountability, and efficiency in all payroll operations and are open to continuous engagement with stakeholders to ensure sustained improvements in our service delivery.
“Your patience and understanding during this difficult time are highly appreciated”.
