The Nairobi Revenue Authority (NRA) Board, tasked with setting up an efficient and effective revenue collection team to hit the target of Kes18 Billion a year, has started its five-day induction in Mombasa.
Speaking during the workshop's opening, Nairobi Deputy Governor, Njoroge Muchiri, assured the Authority of maximum support from the County Government of H.E Sakaja Johnson.
“You have a very important role to play. We must move away from enforcement and instead make it easy for our clients to access and pay for our services,” Muchiri stated.
Finance County Executive Charles Kerich called upon the new board to settle in quickly and get to work immediately.
“This induction provides you with an overview of Nairobi City County Government revenue performance and operations. While there will be more opportunities to immerse yourselves even deeper into understanding your assignment, you must know that time is of the essence. We need to move quickly because the County needs revenue to deliver services and keep the promises in H.E the Governor’s manifesto,” he said.
