The Office of the Accountant General of the Federation (OAGF) has assured Federal Government employees that all affected personnel will receive their June 2025 salaries, following widespread complaints of non-payment—particularly from workers whose accounts are domiciled with Zenith Bank Plc.
This was made known in a statement signed by the Director of Press and Public Relations, Bawa Mokwa.
According to the statement, investigations revealed that the delay was caused by a technical network glitch encountered during the processing of salary payments at the bank. The issue affected staff across various Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs).
“The OAGF understands the anxiety and frustration this situation has caused, particularly given the importance of timely salary payments to the livelihoods and responsibilities of our valued public servants,” the statement read.
The Office expressed deep regret over the inconvenience caused by the glitch and noted that immediate steps have been taken to resolve the issue. It added that efforts are currently underway to reprocess the failed transactions without further delay.
“The Office is currently working closely with the relevant service providers and stakeholders to ensure that the failed payments are reprocessed in the shortest possible time,” the OAGF stated.
Affected federal employees were urged to remain calm, with reassurances that the welfare of public servants remains a top priority.
“The OAGF remains fully committed to transparency, accountability, and efficiency in all payroll operations and is open to continuous engagement with stakeholders to ensure sustained improvements in service delivery,” the statement concluded.
