I have also directed my staff to ensure heightened collection of revenue as this is what will be used to pay for salaries and other operational issues in the county. It saddens me that so far we have only managed to collect 33% of what we used to collect in the past. In 1964 the City Council would loan the Government money while in 1968 it loaned foreign governments money, what has changed? With hard work and determination we can collect Kes 100B effectively and not look up to the National government for any financial assistance. How true is that? This was in the era of the graduated personal tax(PAYE) which used to fund the majimbo system. Every employee(actually all residents) had a tax card which also indicated the area of residence and the employer would affix tax stamps for the income tax deducted. The income tax collected would then be remitted to your area of residence. Nairobi was the best collector because it had the most employers. So yes Nairobi City council was quite cash rich. Graduated personal tax was later abolished and replaced with the income tax act where PAYE goes to central govt. The rest is history
