Is it the result of the performance targets?
Sir,
Thank your once again for allowing me space in your leading newspaper. May I humble myself and direct this question to the Honourable Prime Minister Sibusiso Dlamini if it is the result of the performance targets that I have observed certain things within our government?
The country will agree with me that the prime minister introduced the performance targets particularly in his Cabinet when he took over for the second term.
To my observation, this has cause different performances if not negative;
* I have seen the minister of public works and transport fighting a losing battle in the issue of the satellite bus rank. He reinstated the CTA, General Transport Manager and the following day he apologised.
* I have seen the Minister of Education closing private schools while he knows very well how difficult it is to get a space in schools. He knows very well even the mobile classes are not enough. He also published the names of teachers who had been fired from the profession.
* I have seen the Minister of Housing showing her power in delaying the process of employing the capital city’s CEO. How can a capital city operate without a chief executive officer? She is very good in probing operations.
* I have seen the Minister of Sports probing the operations of the SNYC particularly the CEO. Now the organisation is without a CEO. For how long? How can the only organisation for the youth operate without the CEO? Yet she is touring the country, teaching bobabe Shifu on the youth fund.
* I have seen the ministry of home affairs performing very well in as far as providing travel documents is concerned. The ministry’s officials are a law unto themselves, especially in Manzini.
