Nairobi county staffers operating from the City Hall have refused to report to their work stations unless their demands are met.
Through their union representatives, they have managed to mobilize the workers not to report for duty through notices that were posted on each entrance, raising concerns of poor working conditions as well as late salary payments.
Heavy security has been deployed to manage the situation, although the situation on the ground is calm at the moment.
The workers assembled outside City Hall Annexe awaiting further communication in the said ongoing meeting between their representatives and the Nairobi county council government.
The Kenya County Government Workers Union (KCGWU) had earlier raised concerns over non-functional lifts and poor working conditions at City Hall.
In a letter dated February 10, the union’s Deputy secretaries Augustine and Calvince Okello highlighted that the poor working conditions have not only affected workers but also people visiting for services.
