The organised Labour in Kogi State has expressed dismay on the story credited to Head of Service, Mrs Deborah Ogunmola that she has uncovered 300 ghost workers allegedly planted by senior civil servants in the state. The Head of Service, Deborah Ogunmola had alleged that over 300 uncleared staff of Kogi State civil servant made their way back to the payroll of the state civil service through the help of top civil servants. The statement, therefore, challenged the Head of Service to publish the names of the ghost workers, their MDAs and the senior civil servants involved in the criminal activities. The organised labour also accused the Head of Service of finding avenues of perpetuating herself in the office, having reached her retirement age in service since two years ago. The statement reiterated the loyalty of the entire workforce to the state government and expressed the hope that government would reciprocate by giving priorities to workers welfare.
