Having served for nearly a decade in local government, I can pronounce without any fear or favour that well-educated, skilled, experienced, brilliant and talented employees are overlooked in favour of unqualified, politically connected deployees when appointments and promotions to senior management positions are made in government. This is a form of corruption and must be stopped.
Two questions arise: do we have relevant, qualified employees in government offices to conduct fair and open recruitment and selection processes? Are our human resource practitioners coerced or manipulated by politicians to hire or promote candidates who are not skilled, less educated and inexperienced than their colleagues?
For the public sector to succeed in achieving quality service delivery, it is critical that they acquire the best skills to deliver their plans within reasonable timelines and without wasting already scarce public resources which will certainly dwindle even further in the aftermath of Covid-19. It is common knowledge that when employees do not give their best, it is the organisation that suffers the most, and in the case of the government this directly affects the citizens. South Africa cannot afford that. It is too early in the day for such luxuries.
I believe in the Economic Freedom Front’s aspirations to build a Marxist-Leninist and Fanonian pan-continental movement, backed by research and educational institutions and professional organisations, to lead the whole of society towards economic freedom.
