The newly launched Defence Savings and Credit Cooperative
Society Limited (DESACCO) has put the decade’s old mantra within the Sacco
industry of the freedom to be a member of one’s choice and free to exit to
serious test after it emerged that the military high command is forcing members
of the armed forces to join or face an
explained consequences.
The Weekly Vision online has learnt from a source
within (DESACCO) that promotions, foreign and internal travels are now being
directly pegged to ones membership of the new outfit. The order to forcefully
recruit members of the armed forces into the new Sacco is said to have been
communicated to the military men and women by non-other than Assistant Chief of
Defence Forces, Personnel and Logistics Major General Fatumah Ahmed.
The same source confided in us how similar tactics at play
now, led to Ulinzi Sacco’s collapse the early nineties. If the order to
forcefully recruit is no rescinded then I fear (DESACCO) is likely to face the
same fate as Ulinzi. Sacco membership is supposed to be voluntary as it has
always been. Military personnel hold membership in various Saccos, Harambee
Sacco, Muhasibu Sacco, Stima Sacco, Mwalimu Sacco and Metropolitan Sacco
respectively.
