The Governor of Borno State, Babagana Zulum has revealed that at the ongoing employee verification exercise, names of babies were also found on payrolls of the Shani Local Government Area of the state.
The Governor speaking on Saturday during the Menwara Cultural Festival in Shani Town said:
“Let me inform you that at the end of the verification exercise, names of babies were found in the payrolls while N19 million was paid to fake employees in Shani Local Government Area monthly.
“It was discovered that one family alone has 300 fake employees and if this trend continues, I am afraid, Shani LGA may not be able to pay the monthly salaries of its employees, in the future.”
