Atwoli Stops NSSF Board Operations

The Central Organization of Trade Unions boss Dr. Francis Atwoli has acquired orders to stop the operations of the NSSF Board.

In a ruling delivered by Hon. Lady Justice Monica Mbaru, the Cabinet Secretary in charge of Labour and Social Protection was ordered to suspend operations of the board until a COTU member was gazetted.

“COTU on behalf of Kenyan workers, through our lawyer, moved to court to seek orders to stop the operations of the NSSF board considering one of COTU (K)’s nominees had not been gazetted by the Cabinet Secretary, Ministry of Labour for sinister motives.” dr. Atwoli wrote in a statement.

As a result, COT (K) got orders indicating that the NSSF Board should stop all operations until the COTU (K)’s nominee Sis. Rose Omamo has been gazzetted.

The order will subsequently nullify vacancies by the NSSF which has allegedly been hiring staff without the approval of the Board.

“The hiring, as advertised by NSSF, can only happen when the NSSF Board and various committees, including HR committee, are legally constituted after the gazettement of COTU (K) nominee Sis. Rose Omamo.”
