The Federal Government has assured that there will not be a delay in the payment of July 2023 salaries for civil servants.
During an interactive session with journalists in Abuja on Tuesday, the Accountant General of the Federation, Mr. Oluwatoyin Madein explained that the delay in the May and June 2023 salaries was due to some bottlenecks beyond the control of his office.
She, however, noted that modalities had been put in place to ensure that salaries were paid as and when due.
She said: “For May and June, we encountered some difficulties beyond our control but I can assure you that everything has been put in place to ensure that July 2023 salaries are not delayed and will be paid any moment from now”.
The Head of Civil Service of the Federation, Mrs Folashade Yemi-Esan noted that workers would smile soon.
She commented on questions surrounding palliatives to cushion the effect of the fuel subsidy removal on civil servants.
