No fewer than 3,657 civil servants are currently explaining to operatives of the Independent and Corrupt Practices and Related Offences Commission (ICPC) the reason for their failure to allow verification on the Integrated Personnel Payroll Information System (IPPIS).
Folashade Yemi-Esan, Head of Service of the Federation (HoS), who made the revelation on Thursday, said 61,446 civil servants in the core Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) had been verified.
She told reporters at the ministerial media briefing organised by the Presidential Communications Team at the State House, Abuja, that 1,618 applicants were found to have used illegal letters and 874 officers others had been suspended from the IPPIS platform, adding that about N180 million had been saved on monthly basis and N2 billion yearly from IPPIS implementation.
