Public Service CS Geoffrey Ruku has announced that the government will release details of ghost workers flagged in a recently conducted payroll audit.
Public Service Cabinet Secretary Geoffrey Ruku has announced that the government will release details of individuals implicated in a recently conducted payroll audit.
In an interview on Tuesday, September 16, the CS warned that the findings will expose those who have been earning salaries without offering service.
Ruku revealed that experts undertaking the audit were set to present their findings to his office, adding that the government would not tolerate ghost workers or any public servant failing to deliver to Kenyans.
“I have the experts who have been doing the payroll audit, and they will be coming to my office to do a presentation. There are issues, and I want to tell you that there are people who will suffer.

“Tomorrow (Wednesday) we will know them because you cannot be given an opportunity by the government and fail to serve Kenyans,” he said.
This comes about two months after Ruku issued a warning to civil servants who report to work late and those who are always absent during working hours, declaring that they will now be treated as ghost workers.
Speaking on Tuesday, July 15, he stated that habitual lateness and unexplained absences will no longer be tolerated in government offices.
“Everybody working in any government office who doesn’t report to work at the required time and those who report to work and later disappear will be treated as ghost workers moving forward,” he said.
Ruku also announced immediate measures to identify and deal with those who fail to adhere to proper reporting times.
