Kenyan TV Personalities’ and Twitter Users Rush to defend Monica Juma after MPS Punished Her for Being Rude
Gone are the days when politicians could carry one their acts with impunity, KOT are a force to be reckoned with and will not let shady acts and pettiness pass by without giving their two cents.
Something that the MPs learnt after they petulantly rejected Monica Juma for being ‘rude’.
Upon reading the ‘rude’ and ‘arrogant’ letter sent to MPs and Senators , Kenyans immediately realized that the politicians were just mad because Monica was an upright employee who did not want to engage in crooked activities.
Part of the ‘offensive’ letter sent to MPS reads “The Hon. Members of Parliament and Senators have time and again been visiting my office and making requests to have officers serving in this ministry, namely Field Administrative officers as well as uniformed officers appointed, transferred or retained in specific stations across the country.
I wish to indicate that honoring such requests poses a huge challenge, in unsustainable and would in some cases constitute a breach of the Civil Service Code of Regulations, the provisions of the constitution as well as policy frameworks.
In the light of this, I address this letter to you to request that you kindly inform the Honorable MPs and Senators about this challenge and reassure them the management of the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government is committed to observe the procedures and fair administrative action as it relates to all staff within the confines of the law and laid down ”
