PSC to fill in Human Resource gaps in Nairobi River Commission.
Public Service Commission Chairperson Amb. Anthony Muchiri has stated that PSC will help in building an effective Human capital for Nairobi Rivers Commission.
He was addressing the NRC Commission members led by Chairperson Dr. Pamela Olet, who visited the commission on a benchmarking tour on 13th October 2023.
He stated,”You can only deliver on your mandate when you have an effective secretariat. The commission will do anything within its mandate to support you in building an effective human capital to deliver on your mandate.”
He empathised with them, saying that he understood that they are currently under pressure to fill in the gaps, but PSC will work on it as soon as possible.
“Your scope of mandate is large and expectations from both the citizens and the highest office of the land are quite high,” The PSC Chairperson added.
Sharing the same sentiments, was the Nairobi River Commission Chairperson Dr. Pamela Olet who called for continuous engagement with PSC in helping the organization set up structures and human resource institutions for effective delivery of the mandate.
She stated, “Being a newly established institution, we truly need assistance and handholding specifically from you (PSC) in addressing the many human resource challenges we are facing.”
The Nairobi River Commission was established through a Gazette Notice Number 14891 on December 2nd, 2022, to reclaim the rivers of Nairobi as a spine to the city’s blue and green infrastructure for a better urban environment and quality of life.
The Commission envisages a collaborative approach together with other stakeholders and development partners to secure, protect and restore the critical River Basin in order to achieve the shared goal of reclaiming the Nairobi Rivers.
