Dr Magufuli said the decision to halt employment in the public service
was temporary, assuring those aspiring to secure jobs in the next
financial year to wait for at least two months so that the government
could accomplish its exercise to weed out ghost workers.The head of state, who was speaking at the climax of celebrations to mark the 50th anniversary of the establishment of the Bank of Tanzania (BoT), gave the clarification, shocking job seekers, who were waiting for jobs up for grabs in the public sector - as members of the trade unions called for suspension of the decision.
"I decided that we
should end contradictions because as the government was struggling to
clear non-existent workers, the public service continued recruiting new
staff," he said, adding:
"You are struggling
to eliminate phantom workers in the payroll, while at the same time
another person is employing new people, which make it even difficult to
realise if those who are currently being employed are also ghost
workers."
