Nigerian Union Threatens Members Registered on New Pay System
The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, is planning to come down on its members in approximately seven universities who defied its directives and enrolled into the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System, IPPIS, which President Muhammadu Buhari announced on October 8, 2019 at the National Assembly. All public sector workers were ordered to register for the IPPIS to fight corruption by blocking leaks in the government's salary payment structure. IPPIS is a computerised human resource management information system that is being implemented in ministries, departments, agencies and local governments to perform various human resource functions.
