Wadau sitaki kuwachosha sana kwenye hili, siku zote nimekuwa nikiamini kabisa kutoka na kuvurunda kwingi kwa Serikali yetu, labda na baadhi ya ofisi za umma zimekuwa zikiendeshwa wa watu ambao pengine upeo wao ki taaluma ni duni au ni wa kutia mashaka kama sio ule wa kupenda kurahisha mambo (business as usual ) hata kama ni nyeti na yenye kuhitaji umakini wa hali ya juu.
Hili limekuwa ni tatiso na pengine Serikali imejikuta ikiingia gharama kubwa kwa uzembe wa kutoangalia utendaji kwa watumishi wake kwani wengine wamekuwa akipewa dhaman kubwa ya ushuri na kuendesha majukumu mazito yenye mslahi ya taifa wakati huwezo wao ni mdogo kitaaluma.
Haya nimeyakuwata kwenye Mtandao wa Shirika Letu Nyeti la Ugavi wa UMEME (TANESCO) ambalo bado tunalia nalo kwa kushindwa kufanikisha mambo mengi
Hbarai hii ni kuhusu majukumu ya Kitengo/Idara nyeti ya Sheria ambyo kimsingi ndiyo muhimu kusaidia kushauri Shirika na Serikali kwa ujumlla kuhusu masuala yote ya kisheria ambayo TANESCO na wateja wake wanapaswa kuyaelewa kiundani na kwa ufasaha.
Mtazamo wangu umejikita zaidi kwenye hayo niliyoyabainisha kwa nyekundu "highlights". Ebu tusaidiane katika hili Jamani, mwenzenu inanisiklitisha na naumia sana kama hali ipo hivi ns watu bado wavuta mpunga tu kwa nafsi huko maofisini.
