All is not well at the Presidential Delivery Unit based at Kenyatta International Convention Centre with members being accused of engaging in sexual escapades, corruption and nepotism.
Indeed, internal dissent within the PDU, the agency tasked with overseeing the Big Four Agenda, now threatens to scuttle Uhuru Kenyatta’s legacy projects.
PDU includes former journalists Laban Cliff Onserio, Mumbi Warui and Nixon Ng’ang’a. Others are former MPs Silvanus Onyango, Boniface Kinoti and a former political aspirant Michael Rotich.
The unit was officially installed to follow up on Uhuru’s legacy projects.
It is tasked with following up with county commissioners on national government projects and implementation of the Big Four agenda.
But according to sources, tribalism, sex exploitation and nepotism are the big four agenda at the unit mandated to help Uhuru deliver his four agenda to Kenyans and leave behind a lasting legacy.
Last year, the unit employed new 40 staff members but surprisingly, those engaged in employment were directly linked to powerful forces at State House, the seat of the presidency.
Insiders aver that the job descriptions of the staff are not clear and neither are their roles. Some of the employees are known to demand bribes from county commissioners failure to which they will write damning reports about their counties.
The employees further claim huge allowances even when working in stations near Nairobi. Questions are also being asked on the criteria for employment.
Most of the employees cannot write project reports which help donors and government agencies know whether their money has been put to good use.
Senior male employees are also accused of sexually molesting their female colleagues, particularly the new ones. They arrange for them to accompany them in upcountry tours where they book them in the same hotel. They later demand sex, with those who turn down their advances threatened with sacking.
