There is nothing wrong with Mkondiwa being retained as CS. In addition there are PSs who are real PS material and thier understanding of the public service is very important.

A dangerous term – Chief Director has been introduced into the service. This is a cut and paste thing from India or South Africa.

Please investigate on this otherwise we are not going to achieve meaningful reforms.

This reform is a mere window dressing, with no savings on the tax payers’ money. The civil service remains bloted what has changed is simply change of titles with same benefits. What a waste of time, and tax payers money

Retire those that are due other than creating other posts like Chief Directors. Departments already have their own directors and these chief whatever will only complicate things since they are not technocrats in line departments.
