    The University Transparency and Accountability Solution (UTAS) and Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS) both failed the integrity test that was conducted by the National Information Technology Development Agency.

    This was revealed by Usman Abdulahi, a director at NITDA, on Thursday at a meeting called by the House of Representatives leadership to discuss the ongoing Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) strike.

    Folashade Esan, the head of service, the federation’s comptroller general, and the director general of the National Income Salaries and Wages Commission were present at the meeting.

    Mr Abdulahi stated that UTAS failed three integrity tests, while IPPIS failed the single test conducted on it so far.

    • ASUU denies failure of UTAS integrity test

    “We were asked to conduct the test on three payment systems. UTAS 2020, U3PS by SSANU and NASU, and IPPIS. The report is the outcome of the assessment we did. In this report, we have criteria. None of the solutions met NITDA criteria,” he said.

    However, the Head of Service disagreed with the outcome of the test. She said the test was conducted on a single component of IPPIS.

    She disclosed that IPPIS has a payment and human resources component, adding that the test was done on only the payment platform.

    In his reaction, the Speaker, Femi Gbajabiamila, said there is a need for a more enlarged meeting to discuss some of the issues.

    He ruled that the next meeting must feature ASUU, the Minister of Labour and Productivity, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, and others.

    They are to meet next week Thursday at the National Assembly Complex.

    Rev. Fr. Anthony Odiong, a US-based Nigerian Louisiana Catholic priest, was arrested in Florida on Tuesday for possessing child pornography, according to law authorities.  The suspect is reportedly accused of many other cases of sexual assault.  The Waco, Texas, Police Department announced in a Facebook post on Tuesday that officers detained Father Anthony Odiong in Ave Maria, Florida, with assistance from the United States Marshals Service.  Waco police announced in March that they had received "credible information" about a sexual assault allegedly committed by Odiong in Texas in 2012. “During the subsequent investigation, a case of possession of child pornography was uncovered,” the police said.  The priest was apprehended in Florida by the Caribbean Regional Fugitive Task Force.  The Waco Police Department said that he will be extradited to Texas.  Odiong had previously served in the Archdiocese of New Orleans before being removed as priest in December of last year due to controversy over homilies in which he claimed, among other things, that the Catholic Church was being taken over by "the gays." At the time, the priest was also accused of abusive behaviour; a Louisiana lady claimed in U.S. bankruptcy court that Odiong had committed both financial and sexual abuse against her.  Prior to joining the New Orleans Archdiocese, Odiong served in at least two Texas parishes.  On Tuesday, Waco police stated that during their sexual assault investigation, "the presence of other survivors was revealed." “Multiple women have come forward to tell similar experiences as the sexual assault survivor who reported the initial allegation,” the police department said.  “Survivors’ experiences ranged from sexual assault and indecent assault, more commonly recognised as groping, and financial abuse, with some survivors experiencing every element of Anthony Odiong’s manipulation.” The police said they “believe there may be more survivors, and we wish to speak with anyone who [has] had similar encounters” with the priest. The Archdiocese of New Orleans issued a brief news release on Tuesday noting Odiong's arrest in Florida. The archdiocese “encourages anyone with any information to contact law enforcement,” the release said.
