Hope Uzodimma, under whose eagle eyes, a verification exercise was conducted and many ghost workers, identified\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>She said that the Civil Service System in Imo State has been successfully rejigged, with a backlog of owed emoluments cleared, and multiple payments to fraudulent workers halted.<\/p>\n<p>She said: \u201d Imo workers get their salaries as and at when due. Any who complaints about unpaid salaries today must be investigated as the complainant is either a ghost worker or an unrepentant beneficiary of the rot in the system that saw many workers receive salaries from different offices at the same time, a situation which has been tackled assiduously\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>She said: \u201cThe Government, therefore, wonders where BudgIT got its false facts from to the extent of publishing it and misleading the public\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The state government cautioned BudgIT to always cross-check its facts and conduct \u201cthorough research\u201d so as to avoid misleading the public, embarrassing the Government, and bringing itself into disrepute.<\/p>\n<p>She said: \u201cOne wonders where such unconfirmed report could spring from, considering the fact that Imo workers got a 13th-month salary bonus in December 2021, with other juicy gifts, as an expression of the State Government\u2019s commitment to the overall welfare of our workers\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Government, therefore, enjoins the Imo people to keep faith with the 3R Government of Gov. Hope Uzodimma, anchored on Reconstruction, Rehabilitation and Recovery, while assuring that the welfare of Imo workers will remain an issue of paramount importance and will always receive every needed attention. Better times still lie ahead.<\/p>\n<p>The Commissioner pointed out that the state had also, in July 2022, finally achieved the milestone of instant Retirement to Pension payment with zero time lag.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Imo State Commissioner for Finance and Coordinating Economy, Dr Doris Uzoka-Anite, has disclosed that the state Government is up-to-date with the payment of salaries of workers in the state, and not owing any emoluments.
