You are taking side already without a good source to confirm the news. The first comment denied any deduction and the second person claimed it to be true.

Wait to have more claims and good valid source before cruisifying the government . enemies of this administration has been cooking up series of stories that are not true to spite the government because most Nigerians only want to hear the sad new and never ask questions and carries on with the mind set even if the news is later found to the false.

Firstly, tell us the exact MDA where you work. I am a staff of office of the auditor general and my salary was not reduce by a kobo. Again, the PITA, NHF and pension act have not been amended of recent so, it is not possible for government to singlehandedly increase your tax and other contributions without amending the relevant laws. If your salary was truly reduced, the only reasonable explanation is that you have previously been underpaying your taxes and other statutory deductions.

So, what exactly is your point of argument? If your agency has not been complying with the attached tax table, then the relevant tax authority ought to come and audit the organisation and raise additional tax assessment on you guys for all the years that you have been under paying your taxes.

When you don't know and you don't know that you don't know your issue is complicated .when was thus tax rule made? when was the new 8% for pension and the increase in national housing fund made? were you told that this is the existing tax rule ? and we have not been following ?

we need to see NLC and all other unions do something as regards this. this Ayuba Wabba led NLC is so annoyingly weak. my friend at ECN confirmed same thing happened to thier salaries yesterday. For those morons saying maybe i took a loan or dont pay the appropriate tax, pension or correct NHF i just wander at how you people create excuses for everything. Una go still cry for seeing the truth and covering up. if your salaries were not cut, go and spend it and shut the Bleep up. this thead was created to vent and voice my opinion in my own little way. it is absolutely wrong for the government to just do things without consultation. they are so quick to bring hardship on people but very slow to implement palliatives.
talking about law don't u know salaries are reviewed every five years to meet the present realities on ground? Has this government that is trying its possible best to kill the middle class even thought in that direction? it is almost two years and what positive thing has this government done to affect the lives of the massess. anybody weh say i dey lie if i am not lying may deductions happen in all facets of your life

Civil Servants Cry Out As FG Slashes November Salaries

By Ruth Tene
— Dec 1, 2016 12:34 pm | Leave a comment
By Ruth Tene Natsa, Abuja

Civil servants in ministries, departments and paratatals of government have decried the huge deductions on their November salaries without any fore-warning.

This is even as they lamented the increasing prices of goods and services.



LEADERSHIP findings revealed that the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) and the Public Complain Commission last month were respectively under lock and key as a result of payment of half salaries while many others joined in November.

While some were said to record as high as 50% cuts, others could not ascertain how much they had been shortchanged.

Speaking on grounds of anonimity, a staff of Voice of Nigeria (VON) lamented that they only learnt of the salary cut when an internal memory dated November 30, 2016 was made available to them on Wednesday.

The memo addressed by the HOF to all staff, titled: ‘Reduction in November 2016 Salary’ stated that ‘we received the Payroll report for the Month of November 2016 from IPPIS and observed there is a drastic reduction in the Net Pay of Voice of Nigeria staff’.

‘On further enquiry, we discovered that the reasons for the deductions are as stated below’

Copy of the memo herewith attached…..

The memo made available to LEADERSHIP blamed the deductions on tax, pensions and national housing funds which were all formerly based on consolidated fund but had all affected staff gross salaries for November, 2016.

Another level 14 Cadre officer who spoke with Leadership on grounds of anonymity said “when I got the alert, I could not figure what was wrong, I just realised my salary was short with over N10,000. I wonder what those on level 7/8 will go home with at this time’

She laments that this is so sad, “At a time we are crying for increase, how can they be slashing? Things are so expensive and it’s most worrisome to have the little we have be toyed with”, she lamented



Another Staff of the Ministry of Justice who also spoke with Leadership said she got her alert on November 29 and realised a deduction of over N40,000 was made.
I don’t understand what is happening she lamented.

A CBN Staff also told LEADERSHIP that his salary was cut by half.

The affected staff have called on the accountant-general of the federation to immediately look into the matter even as they called out to the president for help.
