Governor Kashim Shettima of Borno said the state government had uncovered more than 10,000 ghost workers out of the 25,000 civil servants in the state's work force.
The governor said in Maiduguri on Wednesday during a radio programme.
He said that the workers were uncovered after a verification to determine the actual size of the state's work force.
"We set up a high powered committee chaired by the Secretary to the State Government to carry out a verification of the state civil service
"The committee verified only 19,763 workers out of the 25,000 workers on the state payroll", he said.
''There are also about 3,000 workers who failed to comply with the guidelines on the filling the verification forms,'' he explained.
The governor said he had directed the committee to sort out all those issues within one week to enable the state to pay those workers already captured.
