Cope wants Hawks to probe North West’s 36,000 ghost employees

If the Guinness Book of Records had a “most ghost employees” category‚ it would “undoubtedly” have the North West province “as its prize entry for 2015”‚ the Congress of the People (Cope) said. The party’s Dennis Bloem described as “calamitous that the North West province has 36000 public servants that it cannot account for”‚ and suggested a criminal investigation should be instigated.
