MWANZA
Region, in its second verification exercise on ghost workers, has discovered a
total of 1,057 more such workers who did not show up during the verification
process which was held from April 18 to June 3, this year.
In
the first phase of the verification exercise the region led nationwide by
having a total of 334 ghost workers. Mwanza Regional Commissioner (RC), Mr John
Mongela, said this here yesterday when he was speaking to both the regional
Secretariat and District Council civil servants.
“In
order to implement President John Magufuli’s order of removing ghost workers from
all payrolls, I created two teams which were led by Assistant Administrative
Secretaries. “The effort also involved senior officials from my office,” he
explained.
He
said the teams discovered 28,068 workers who were paid salaries in February,
this year, in both the regional secretariat and council. A total of 27,416 are
from councils and 652 from the regional secretariat.

“The
council’s workers who showed up during the verification exercise totalled
26,359 and those who did not attend were 1,057.
These
are the ones whom we consider to be ghost workers,” he said. He said the region
had made a detailed physical analysis of employees who did not come during the
verification exercise at the council level and found that 367 out of 1,057
workers who did not attend were paid a total of 2,162, 730, 686/-.
He
said among those workers 214 were absent during the same period of verification
and did not work. But they were paid salaries amounting to 1,597,479, 435/- . “
The teams also found out that there were 74 workers who were retired but were
paid 226,677,112/-.
Some
civil servants had resigned but were paid 54,383, 254/-,” he said. He added:
“But the teams also found the presence of three workers who were fired. Two of
them had their salary payments missing but one was paid 332,100/-.”
He
said, however, that the team found the existence of two public servants who
contested in the 2015 general elections were paid a total amount of 12,102,
000/-.
“But
the saddest scenario involved the existence of 33 deceased servants who were
paid 64,515,879/-. Now I do not know if the money (salaries) has followed them
into their graves,” he quipped.
He
also said that the verification exercise of ghost workers has revealed the
presence of 31 public servants who were not known to their employers but were
paid salaries. “This is funny, how possible is it for an employer to pay a
salary to an unknown worker?
For
example, in Ukerewe District Council there are public servants who are in the
payroll but are not known to their employer,” he said.
He
added that the region has revealed a total of 689 civil servants who did not
attend the verification exercise, but they deserve to be paid their salaries
due to various reasons.
He
said 416 servants were transferred to other work stations, 29 were in studies,
18 were sick, 18 others were not having specific reasons and five were on
vacation. In the regional secretariat, he said, 35 workers were assessed.
One
had died but his bank account had received a total of 3,980,000/-. He said one
servant was dismissed, but his account got a total of 3,617,820/- and one
worker who resigned had 3,556,860/- deposited in his bank account.
