President Bola Tinubu has given a nod for public
universities captured in the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information
System, IPPIS, to exit the payment platform.
The Minister of Education, Prof. Mamman Tahir, disclosed the
information on Wednesday, shortly after the Federal Executive Council meeting
presided over by President Bola Tinubu.
Offering more explanations on the presidential directive,
Minister of Information and National Orientation Muhammed Idris said: “Today,
the universities and other tertiary institutions have gotten a very big relief
from the integrated payroll and personnel information system.
“You will recall that the university authorities and the others have been clamouring for the exemption of the universities and other tertiary institutions from this system.
“Today, Council has graciously approved that. What that
means is that going forward, the universities, like the Minister of Education
has said, and other tertiary institutions, the polytechnics and colleges of
education, will be taken off the IPPIS.
“What that means in simple language is that the university
authorities and other tertiary institutions will now be paying their own
personnel from their own end instead of relying on the IPPIS.”
