The Office of the Accountant General of the Federation (OAGF) has attributed the delay in the payment of June 2025 salaries to a technical hitch, particularly affecting employees across various Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs).
In a statement by the Director of Information, Bawa Mokwa, the Office acknowledged complaints from personnel over the non-receipt of their salaries.
“Upon investigation, it was discovered that the salary payments for employees across various MDAs were disrupted due to a technical network glitch during processing at the bank,” the statement explained.
The OAGF expressed regret over the inconvenience caused, noting the critical importance of timely salary disbursement to the welfare of public servants.
“We understand 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. We deeply regret this unfortunate incident and wish to assure all affected employees that immediate steps have been taken to resolve the issue,” the OAGF stated.
According to the statement, the OAGF is working closely with relevant service providers and stakeholders to ensure that the failed payments are reprocessed without further delay.
