No fewer than 5,000 federal civil servants who have discrepancies in their dates of first appointment and dates of birth may not receive their December salary.
This statement was made by National President, Association of Senior Civil Servants of Nigeria, Tommy Okon.
Okon, however, stated that the union was working with the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation and it has forwarded the names of the affected workers to their Directors of Human Resources for confirmation.
The ASCSN President said 2,772 workers have been successfully restored back to the payroll of the Federal Government after concluding their online and physical verification exercise.
He called on the Federal Government to expedite and conclude actions to ensure that the December salary of the civil servants who are undergoing different exercises to be reintegrated into the Integrated Personnel and Payroll Information System is not delayed.
Okon urged members of ASCSN who are affected by the reintegration process to exercise patient, promising that the union is doing everything within the ambit of the law to ensure that the issues are resolved expeditiously.
