The Federal Government has ordered the immediate termination of
cash payment in offices of the Nigeria Postal Services across the
country.
Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Dr. Isa Pantami,
who gave the order on Thursday, said it has been discovered that
the cash payment system was aiding corrupt practices.
Pantami spoke in a statement issued by his spokesperson, Uwa
Suleiman.
“It has come to the attention of the Minister of Communications
and Digital Economy, Dr. Isa Pantami, that some unscrupulous
elements have been taking undue advantage of the cash payment
system under the Nigeria Postal Services to engage in corrupt
practices.
“In line with the anti-corruption agenda of President Muhammadu
Buhari, and the mandate of the Federal Ministry of Communications
and Digital Economy, the Minister hereby directs the Post Master
General, to, with immediate effect, suspend all existing cash
payment plans within its establishments nationwide,” the statement
said.
The Post Master General was directed to ensure that all NIPOST
offices immediately revert to Point of Sales and bank teller
transactions.
In the same vein, members of the public and all customers of
NIPOST were encouraged to insist on PoS or bank teller transactions
when conducting business with the postal service.
“This directive is a temporary measure in the interim to tackle
corruption, as we are currently working on fully automating the
systems as a permanent solution to the challenge,” the statement
added.
Pantami also directed the Post Master General to immediately
implement strategies that will bring an end to undue delays in
NIPOST’s services.
“The current trend of delays in postal services will not be
condoned by the office of the minister, under whose purview the
supervision of NIPOST falls,” the statement warned.
The statement noted that the minister of Communications and
Digital Economy was determined to protect the rights of all
Nigerians and will not tolerate any acts of corruption under his
watch.
