Remove unqualified public servants - ANC

[Sneeky]

The ANC wants government to remove unqualified people from top municipal jobs, secretary general Gwede Mantashe said on Wednesday.

This call comes ahead of the 2016 local government elections.

"Government is called upon to conduct a skills audit and remove those people who occupy positions they do not qualify for," he told reporters in Johannesburg.

"The ANC must publicly and decisively deal with poor performance and corruption."

Mantashe said the ANC wanted to strengthen accountability and political management. He said a history teacher could not be appointed as a chief financial officer, for example.

Mantashe was briefing the media following the ANC's three-day national executive committee lekgotla held in Pretoria this week.

The committee also called on government to review non-viable municipalities.

Imagine Gwede, like doing an 'Undercover Boss' type show like on telly.

The disguise would win an Oscar for makeup no doubt if the ruse works, but just imagine you send him into home affairs, a Police station, frikkin anywhere, as Joe Public, he would be (or should be) horrified!

edit: all those layabout actors out there, theres a tv show for you, Reality SA Gov!
Bring it!

At least Zuma has a decent pension plan in place already...

He said a history teacher could not be appointed as a chief financial officer, for example.

for example, he could go sit with the History teacher (read as Financial officer) and quiz them on the state of their accounts, debtors/creditors, liabilities and so forth and see what garbage is spewed forth.

This is now after how many years? Bit slow on the uptake. This was obvious at the beginning.

Our unemployment rate would go up 40%

They must get rid of those that just sit at the job as well, doing nothing.

Remember this is all for show, the standards by which these people will be judged will be so low that most will pass with flying colours.

Of course it does. And it will be forgotten immediately after.

Why only municipal? There's a ton of 'em unqualifieds running the SABC into the ground.

By standards, do you mean.... Are you Black? Yes? Ok boys, we're good here. Nothing to see. Move along.

I guess they will appoint a commission to investigate unqualified public servants. Problem is who is qualified to serve on sucha commission. Should take a few years and millions of taxpayers money.
