Corrupt Hiring Methods Killing Dreams.

Corrupt Hiring Methods Killing Dreams.
Forgive Them Gladys
Turn to page three of today’s Daily Nation and there in is the story of Gladys Tarus whose chance to serve the Kenyan army come to end because she couldn’t afford the K’sh 300,000 bribe. Someone else had the money and their daughter is already in the army uniform as I write this.

We can make all the noise and committee s will be set up to investigate what appears to be a straight forward case of corruption but Grace will not be joining the army any time soon. Actually she has no chance at all after exposing the sham that was the recruitment exercise.

I am totally mad this morning because Gladys case is no special. I know you’re looking at today’s advert from parastatals and government ministries and rushing to do the applications. My dear job-seeker, the harsh reality is that someone somewhere already has the appointment letter. It’s an open secret that many government institutions employ on tribalism, nepotism and outright corruption. You might have all the right papers but in seven cases out of ten, what really carries the day are other things apart from your competence and diplomas or degrees.

And the sad part is that gifted candidates like Gladys will never get a chance to break from the poverty cycle. Obviously, if you can afford to pay a bribe of k’sh 300, o00, it means you could have afforded to open a salon for your daughter who couldn’t complete a 5km race. People like Gladys don’t have the means and you get shocked when the likes of Mungiki attract members in droves? Sooner or later the youth will feel pushed to the wall and this will lead to the social anarchy we are witnessing in Kenya. Ask any carjacker victim and they will tell you that the criminals are mostly in their twenties and well spoken.

So my dear friend, your wish might be to work for the government or a certain parastatal but if you haven’t attained this dream despite sending  1001 application then you need to stop being ‘naïve’ and understand how government departments work. You will save yourself from a lot of stress
