Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The Ministry of Information has pledged support for the National Ministry of Finance and planning to conduct a proper audit and remove ghost workers from the government\u2019s payroll.<\/p>\n

According to a statement issued by the Ministry of Information on its Facebook page yesterday, Deputy Minister of Information Jacob Maiju argued that the \u201ccurrent effort by finance to form a salaries committee is not viable\u201d and that there are doubts as to whether they will successfully eliminate ghost workers.<\/p>\n

Hence, Mr Korok argued that it would take a joint effort from the two institutions to involve a proper technological infrastructure to address the issues.<\/p>\n

\u201cDr. Jacob justified that through the introduction of the new digital payroll system, chances of having ghost names in the payroll shall be meagre and the transaction shall be mostly between banks and finance,\u201d the ministry noted after an e-service board meeting in the Ministry\u2019s Headquarters in Juba.<\/p>\n

The challenge of ghost workers earning a salary on the government\u2019s payroll has elicited long-term complaints, forcing the current minister of finance and planning, Dr Bak Barnaba, to prioritise it as a reform agenda.<\/p>\n

The issue formed part of the draft recommendations of the National Economic Conference, where the economic and service clusters were directed to ensure the names of ghost workers were struck off the payroll.<\/p>\n

In addition, Dr Bak is facing the time constraints of living up to its promise of raising salaries by 600 per cent\u2014a proposal he said was difficult to implement at the time the current budget was being passed in Parliament. He promised to table a supplementary budget to accommodate the salary increment.<\/p>\n
