Did you work with IPPIS? Why have funds been released and paid to other federal staff since December 2019 but the Universities, Polytechnics, Colleges of Education and a few are yet to be paid? Dont you think that someone is trading with their money? Is that not an example of centralized corruption? Why are deductions not been remitted as at when due?

Which funds are you talking about? Which deductions have not been remitted apart from NHF?

timstone:
Who told you they are comfortable with IPPIS
The system frustrate all union
if ASUU call of their strike today
other union will continue theirs
IPPIS told them all will be well, that's the reason they join.It was only ASUU that saw the future.

A lot of us are comfortable with IPPIS, the only thing left is payment of minimum wage arrears IMO.

Just like NLC/TUC.

Some state universities pay more than federal universities.

timstone:
The problem with IPPIS, allowance have not been given to staff
Example,since the inception of IPPIS technologist have not been paid their hazard allowance,IPPIS purposely cut off all allowances, the minimum wage not reflecting.

not purposely cut off, they only say its not official, minimum wage effected but arrears yet to be paid.

Chief! Many things are wrong with ippis, my mom a is members of the joint union of University technologist. But since she enroll into this ippis last year, har salary has not been encouraging, they now divide her salary everytime, if they complain federal government will say later they will amend it. My brother I believe in ASUU very well with this. They should fight for this. THIS COUNTRY NA SCAM.

Its the same thing, some allowances your mom used to get, FG is saying is not documented and that the various university mgt should pay it. Alternatively the NAAT being their union should provide evidence that the allowance is gazetted and documented then government will pay. Also some deductions like tax, pension and NHF were not calculated and deducted according to law and so now its done the income will be seen to have reduced.

You want my payslip to prove we pay tax? If the money isnt retired by the school mgnt that is their problem with the bursar

I can also show you my payslip before and after IPPIS. Before IPPIS we were paying tax at a rate not prescribed by the current tax laws.

zinodizt:
Why can’t FG find a way to integrate IPPIS in a way that will suit the university system..... or look for a better way to pay lecturers since IPPIS doesn’t seem to work for them

Government is saying they will pay approved and documented allowances, all other extras should be borne by money from IGR; sabbatical, adjunct should be from IGR to avoid double payment in the system.

Samcent:
If I get the conversations here correctly, before IPPIS lecturers have not been paying tax to the government. Is this true?

University staff as a whole were not paying tax as prescribed by law.

Nice green jersey

You seem not to understand that Universities are allowed to bring in Researchers from any part of the world into their university to facilitate SKILL and KNOWLEDGE transfer in cutting edge research areas. It's not about teaching! It's about sharing in expertise!

Eg.
The world's most acclaimed surgeon on brain surgery could be invited to spend 6months to one year to ABU. During that time, he would give several lectures, trainings and of course teaching both graduate and undergraduate students. With IPPIS, there is no provision for that.

Apart from that, there is no university in this world that has ALL her required manpower. Knowledge isn't domiciled in only one university

FG is saying that universities should pay from their IGR for any expert they so desire.

shadeyinka:
No sir.
The Federal Government Research institutions have not been able to employ sabbatical Staff or adjunct staff since they migrated to IPPIS

Let them employ full time staff, there are lots of qualified people out there.

sinkhole:
Something is fishy here, government keeps lying left, right and center: Ngige said lecturers are not being owed kobo, he said so on national TV! IPPIS director said all lecturers are now on IPPIS and they are only being owed August and September salary.
All the above are blatant lies!

Some lecturers enrolled into IPPIS disobeying the ASUU directives and are receiving salaries.

The rest that did not enrol last received salary in July and it appears this category are much more in number.

There are some allowances university staff used to receive that FG says is not documented and so should be paid by various university mgt from IGR, this is why it appears salaries reduced.

Lastly universities were not paying the effective tax and pension before now so with the "reduced" salaries the effective rates are assessed further reducing the money.

saraki2019:
The taxing and pension deductions are just too much, an average staff loss almost 20% of his income. You need to see your ippis slip

That is what the law prescribes.

Some university graduates are receiving 30k as salaries per month.

Even in FCT?

Crusader1:
The strike action is effective here in the University of Port Harcourt. It is total and comprehensive. Federal Government must act fast to avoid an indefinite strike action after the warning strike.

What is the update in your university

pictures of the Senate building car park.

Another set were killed in Abraka by the same Dangote trailer group of companies and as usual nothing will be done.

We have not heard of any reckless Dangote trailer driver sentenced in a court of law for all the terrible evil they have brought upon Nigerians.

16 million or 16 billion?

Looks like Nigeria is approaching the second wave.

Whose report will you believe?

It is actually a nationwide strike involving all the federal universities.

People that suffer do not go to Port Harcourt Mall; this is greed in its purest form. Who knows if they just sold their destinies?

Where did they come about the sovereignty of Nigeria? This democracy na wao.

@mrksquare

Indeed the state Secretariat needs a face lift, perhaps WIKE will contract Julius Berger to do the needful.

The phone call is more interesting.

The truth only comes out when politicians leave office e.g. Santa Dickson

African parrots with English names.

Vision less leaders.

The numbers are rising.

Nice if it will work, what is their website?
