The Federal Government’s Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS) was part of the reason for the strike.

In a statement on Wednesday after the meeting, Felix Osifo said the meeting was inconclusive.

Osifo added that the union maintained that Petroleum Training Institute and Petroleum Product Pricing Regulatory Agency (PPPRA), must be paid using the harmonized template of 2015.

According to him, this was already in use by the budget office, appropriated by the National Assembly, and signed by President Muhammadu Buhari into law.
