the nigerian army now has noted with
0:06
concern a report by some online media
0:08
alleging that some pseudo-aggrieved
0:10
personnel wrote an open letter to the
0:11
president accusing the top brass of the
0:14
nigerian army now of corruption and
0:16
extortion
0:18
more worrisome is the insinuation that
0:20
soldiers have threatened to embark on
0:21
strike an action which is tantamount to
0:23
mutiny in the armed forces of nigeria
0:26
contrary to the report the na as part of
0:29
her effort to guard against fraudulent
0:31
practices and entrench accountability
0:33
and transparency in the system subscribe
0:35
to the integrated personnel payroll
0:37
system ipps as directed by the federal
0:41
government since 2018 and this has
0:43
facilitated flawless payment of salaries
0:45
and allowances of personnel
0:47
the ipps does not permit any personnel
0:50
access to payment processes
0:52
these processes undoubtedly provide zero
0:55
opportunity for anyone or group of
0:56
persons to manipulate personnel
0:58
entitlements
1:00
it is also important to state that the
1:02
non-sister services jointly operate a
1:04
consolidated armed forces salary
1:06
structure conifs which is applicable to
1:09
the armed forces of nigeria in general
1:12
therefore what is applicable to
1:14
personnel of other services nigerian
1:16
navy and air force invariably applies to
1:19
personnel of the na
1:21
suffice to state that personnel salaries
1:23
and allowances are promptly
1:24
inappropriately paid without any form of
1:26
shortchange
1:28
therefore the vega allegation of
1:30
corruption and extortion clearly depicts
1:32
a shallow understanding of the processes
1:34
of payments of personnel salaries and
1:36
allowances
1:37
as it stands presently all monthly
1:40
entitlements of personnel have been
1:41
dispersed
1:42
the allegations contained in the
1:44
anonymous ladder are therefore a
1:46
ridiculous attempt at disparaging the
1:47
gnaw and causing disaffection among
1:49
personnel
1:50
though it is weird that personnel of the
1:53
na whose morale is considerably high
1:55
under the command of the incumbent chief
1:56
of army staff will make such allegations
1:59
and threat given the prioritized and
2:01
prompt attention accorded soldiers
2:03
welfare including timely payment of
2:05
their salaries and allowances by the
2:06
current administration the na as a
2:09
professional institution would however
2:11
investigate the claims made in the
2:12
report to establish its veracity and
2:15
take appropriate action were necessary
2:18
the now wishes to state that it will not
2:19
be deterred by any unpatriotic attempt
2:22
aimed at dwindling the morale of her
2:24
personnel
2:25
personnel of the na arrest assured that
2:27
the chief of army staff's innovative
2:29
welfare programs currently being
2:31
implemented for regimental sergeant
2:32
majors down in their families will be
2:35
unmatched for posterity
