About 400 ghost workers have been discovered on the payroll of the Ondo State Football Agency.
The discovery was made by a three - man Interim Management Committee set up by the state government to look into the administration of the agency and find a solution to its unimpressive performance of the state- owned football team .
The ODSFA is in charge of Sunshine Stars Football Club and the Sunshine Queen Football , Akure.
Speaking in Akure , the state capital, the chairman of the committee , Gbenga Elegbeleye, said 620 names were on the payroll of the agency.
He said, “On assumption of office , we asked for a list of all the staff in the agency in the employ of the ODSFA and what we saw was surprising . A list of over 600 persons was submitted but when we did a headcount of the staff few days later , we discovered that the agency had over 200 workers .
“The most annoying thing is that , there are no criteria to determine who earns more or less . We noticed that some (secondary ) school certificate holders were earning more than BSc holders. ”
According to him , corrupt practices going on in the agency is responsible for the inability of the ODSFA to pay salaries of players and officials of the Sunshine Stars .
