The Nairobi Metropolitan Service (NMS) is set to hire at least 1,000 new enforcement officers in a bid to replace an old workforce at the inspectorate department. The Mohammed Badi-led administration last Friday redeployed 800 enforcement officers from City Hall. A biometric report by City Hall last November indicated that about a half of Nairobi County government employees were over 50 years with most set to retire soon. “If you recall before handing over of functions, Nairobi County Public Service Board had advertised the positions. The enforcement officers will be the supervisory staff and applicants must be graduates who will be trained to supervise the constabularies,” he said.
