Office of the Accountant General of the Federation has clarified reason behind ongoing salary deduction among Federal workers.
It was gathered that some workers experienced salary overpayments in December 2024 due to a system error.
The overpayments are currently being recovered through deductions from affected workers’ salaries.
This was contained in a statement on Friday by Director of Press and Public Relations, to OAGF, Bawa Mokwa.

He explained that the amounts received during this period reflected normal salaries after the exhaustion of various arrears paid in the last quarter of 2024.
The statement reads: “Payment of normal salaries after exhausting the various arrears began in January 2025, which made some workers think that they were shortchanged when in actual sense, it was their real salaries.
“A glance at the current salary table will substantiate this further.
“There were cases of overpayments in December 2024 due to system error, adding that the error has been corrected and deductions in respect of the overpayments from the salaries of affected workers were ongoing and shall continue until such overpayments were fully recovered.”
