Jigawa Govt Discovers Over 6,000 Ghost Workers

By Our Correspondent

The Jigawa State Government has uncovered 6,348 ghost workers through a biometric staff verification exercise aimed at cleaning up its payroll system.

This initiative has resulted in annual savings exceeding ₦3.7 billion, significantly easing the state’s financial burden.

The discovery followed the implementation of the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Management System (IPPMS), which streamlined payroll processing and improved salary payments.

To sustain the process, the government has approved a Continuous Capture Centre (CCC) at the Office of the Head of Civil Service for ongoing biometric data updates and staff audits.
