President Tinubu approves Exemption of University from IPPIS
President Bola Tinubu has approved the exemption of public universities from the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS).
The Minister of Education, Prof. Mamman Tahir, disclosed this during the week after the Federal Executive Council meeting presided over by President Bola Tinubu.
The minister said, “Today, the universities and other tertiary institutions have gotten a very big relief from the integrated payroll and personnel information system. You will recall that the university authorities and the others have been clamoring for the exemption of the universities and other tertiary institutions from this system.”
“Today, Council has graciously approved that. What that means is that going forward, the universities, like the Minister of Education has said, and other tertiary institutions, the polytechnics and colleges of education, will be taken off the IPPIS. What that means in simple language is that the university authorities and other tertiary institutions will now be paying their own personnel from their own end instead of relying on the IPPIS.”
“Simply, the president and the Council are just concerned about the efficiency of management of the universities, and so it has nothing to do with integrity or platform options. The president cannot understand why Vice Chancellors should be leaving their duty post and run to Abuja to get staff enlisted on IPPIS when they get recruited. The basic concern is that universities are governed by laws. And those laws give them autonomy in certain respects and most respects and the IPPIS has sort of eroded that autonomy granted universities is accordance with their act.
