Nairobi City County employees have raised concern after discovering recurring discrepancies between the amounts reflected on their payslips and the salaries credited to their accounts, with many reporting shortfalls of between Ksh600 and Ksh1,000 following recent changes to the county’s payroll processing system.
Frustration is growing among staff, who are now blaming Governor Johnson Sakaja’s administration for what they term bungled salary payments. Employees argue that while the missing amounts may appear small individually, the impact is significant when spread across thousands of workers—many of whom earn about Ksh20,000 a month.
According to affected employees, the discrepancies began after the county moved its salary processing to Sidian Bank.
Workers insist the missing amounts are not related to EFT charges, noting that those deductions appear separately on their payslips.
“Please highlight this story. I am an employee and I know it’s true. Nairobi County employees have noticed a Ksh600–1,000 discrepancy between their salaries and payslips. The Ksh600 is not an EFT charge because that was deducted separately. For me, I got a shortfall of Ksh600 and still had an EFT deduction,” one employee lamented.
The issue has sparked anger and anxiety among staff, who say the unexplained deductions undermine trust and strain already tight household budgets.
Many are now calling on the county government to urgently explain the discrepancies and refund any unlawfully deducted amounts.
