It might not affect their ability to do the job if one is just communicating with people speaking the same language. But what about reading and interpreting government documents, interacting confidently with people who don't speak that particular language? Bar set too high?

Rank: Elder Joined: 6/8/2013 Posts: 2,517		Sad that what we have successfully devolved is co[size=6][b]rruption, tribalism and nepotism Governors risk legal action over county jobs The move comes following reports that some counties were excluding some ethnic groups and clans in their hiring for new jobs, running the risk of posing a serious danger to national healing and cohesion. Among the counties NCIC has cited as having flouted the law that requires inclusion were Isiolo, Kiambu, Machakos, Turkana, Kisii and Kwale. The law also requires that at least 30 per cent of the civil service should include people who originate from outside each county to promote national cohesion. “There is a worry that the counties are becoming ethnic enclaves. In some counties there is a deliberate move to exclude other ethnic groups while others are going as far as appointing only from their clans. This is why we are raising the alarm,” said commission chairman Mzalendo Kibunjia. Kibunjia and NCIC might be toothless bulldogz but here they have their finger on a problem jaggernaut wrote: Did I hear someone say that counties shouldn't employ more than 30% of workforce from one community?

Dont think tribal all the time. the 30% is outside the county and not one community. So for KK, they can get that from Vihiga Thieves
