16,532 Oyo Workers Face Probe Over Multiple Salaries by emphylex52(m): 8:36am On May 12, 2016 |
The Oyo State Government has said it will
set up a panel to investigate 16,532
workers in the state for various offences
which include drawing multiple salaries.
The Secretary to the State Government,
Olalekan Alli, said on Wednesday that the
affected workers included employees and
pensioners of the State Universal Basic
Education Board, Teaching Service
Commission, National Youth Service Corps
members, local governments and tertiary
institutions. Alli explained that workers, who should
have retired but who were still working, and
employees with bank accounts linked to
invalid Bank Verification Number or without
BVN, would also face the panel.
He said the payment of salaries of the
concerned employees would be suspended
immediately pending further investigation.
He said, “It is to be noted that the 16,532
employees, identified as having issues in
their data, are not automatically thrown out
of work nor are they confirmed guilty of any
financial illegalities yet.
“That is why the panel is being set up to
further evaluate the case of each person on
a one-on-one basis.”
The SSG said the workers were exposed by
the recent staff verification in the state,
which was carried out by a consultant.
He noted that the purpose of the exercise
was to eliminate fraud and errors in the
payment of salaries, wages and pensions
as well as to determine ‘ghost’ workers in
the state.
Alli added, “It is to ascertain the actual
number of employees in the regular
employment of the state by various
categories; determine who is a bonafide
beneficiary of the salaries/wages/pensions
by the government; eliminate fraud in the
payroll system by ensuring that only
identified, deserving and regular employees
receive the salaries being paid by the
government.
“The exercise was also conducted to fish
out ghost workers, eliminate all forms of
duplication and irregularities that may lead
to the inflation of the payroll via the
nominal roll and ascertain the level of
compliance in respect of mode and format
of payment of salaries.”
The SSG said after the forensic
computerised data audit, the consultants
from NIBSS found many instances of
inconsistencies, variations and entry details
that did not tally.
According to him, a former Commissioner
for Health in the state, Dr. Muyiwa
Gbadedesin; a representative of the
consultant, Mrs. Tolu Shadipe,
representative of labour unions and the
Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Finance,
would be members of the panel. |
