Federal Government Removes Federal Tertiary Institutions from IPPIS 

The Office of the Accountant General of the Federation (OAGF) has confirmed the deactivation 

of the Integrated Personnel and Payroll Information System (IPPIS) for Federal Tertiary 

Institutions (FTIs), following the Federal Government’s decision to remove these institutions 

from the IPPIS platform.  

Bawa Mokwa, the OAGF’s Director of Press and Public Relations, disclosed the development in 

an interview, explaining that the shutdown aligns with the government’s directive. 

“It was only natural for the IPPIS platform for FTIs to be shut down, given the Federal 

Government’s directive to remove these institutions from the system,” Mokwa stated. He added 

that November salaries for staff in these institutions will be processed via the Government 

Integrated Financial Management Information System (GIFMIS), with institutions required to 

submit payrolls in Excel format for verification and validation by IPPIS. 

In response to circulating concerns about salary account changes, the OAGF clarified that no 

directive has been issued requiring employees to change their bank details linked to IPPIS 

accounts. 

Mokwa further assured workers that their welfare remains a top priority and emphasized that the 

government aims to avoid any misleading or panic-inducing information.
