Once one turns eighteen years old it is time for one to get a National Identification Card.Without a National Identification Card you will not be able to do so many things like:
- You can get arrested for not having an Identification Card.
- join a University or College.
- Open a bank account.
- Get a passport to travel out of the Country.
- Get a legit job.
Getting a National Identification card is the right of any citizen of a certain Country.But getting one can be a trip to hell depending on where you are going to apply for one.And this is because of the Government Offices employers.Only afew of them make this process smooth for the applicants.These Officers, if i may call them that are always so rude and never give people applying for the Identification cards directions on what is required and to be done during this process.
Dare to ask them they never answer and say they are busy or talk to you rudely and don't even give you the answer to your question.One would think they are being forced to do their work when at the end of the month they receive a salary.Or you may wonder if that job belongs to their dad.
They take long early lunches and return at around 3p.m and close early or at the exact closing time not a minute after.They have a tendency of chasing applicants away to come at a later day.It is like Kenyans have to beg Government Officers to do their jobs because they are super special.
One of the places that applicants are getting a hard time applying for Identification Cards is the Makadara area in the County of Nairobi.The Officers responsible for this process have been giving applicant hell for the longest time.Knowing how Kenya is i know this is not the only area with problems.Is there a place one can report incompetent Government Officers?Because what is forever lacking most in Kenya is accountability.These Officers are plain incompetent and deserve to be reminded what their job is?
