Minister of Finance, Kemi Adeosun yesterday afternoon told Senate Committee on Finance that the 23,000 ghost workers unraveled in the Federal Civil Service would be handed over to Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Speaking when she appeared before the committee, the Minister said banks that connived with the workers to pad the Federal government payroll are going to be prosecuted too.
