The Accountant General of the Federation has said federal workers will start receiving their January salaries from Thursday evening (today), attributing the delay to a glitch from the Government Integrated Financial Management System (GIFMIS) platform. There have been rising concerns over delay in the payment of January salaries of federal workers. The delay was blamed on the non-conclusion of the 2024 appropriation on the GIFMIS platform by the Office of Accountant-General of the Federation (OAGF).
