Nigerian govt to workers: No bank switch required for salary accounts

The Federal Government has assured they are not required to switch banks linked to their Integrated Personnel and Payroll Information System (IPPIS) salary accounts.

This clarification followed concerns over directives requiring employees to change banks due to system upgrades.

The Director of Press and Public Relations in the Office of Accountant-General of the Federation (OAGF), Bawa Mokwa, said in a statement on Monday the information was to avoid unnecessary confusion or alarm in the system.
