An audit by PWC has revealed that 92 percent of the City Council of Nairobi workforce is incompetent.Sad Sad

>>58% of city council workers are not educated beyond primary school level.

>>39% of staff in managerial grades hold a minimum of a Bachelor’s degree.

>>1/4 of the council’s workforce is 50 years and over, and therefore likely for retirement.

solution
The Town Clerk said that the council will consider proposals ensuring that directors are employed on contract basis to ensure that contracts are only renewed on performance.

Did they ever get rid of the ghost workers??

The wage bill would have been higher had 4,000 ghost workers not been removed from the payroll three years ago after another audit.

Another useless report from PWC. Do they mean parking attendants, garbage collectors, street sweepers, drivers, grass cutters, sewerage unblockers, revenue collectors are all incompetent? What skills do you need to do these jobs? Unskilled is not the same as incompetent.

you have a point here. This comes after PWC messed up a parastatal in a restructuring plan they had come up with. Sometimes it is better to sort out your internal issues instead of inviting consultants who do not understand your operations.
