However, the hiring of the company carrying out the activity has been questioned by the affected employees, who are concerned about the recruitment procedure.

Instead, the organization took action in response to the State Corporations Advisory Committee’s recommendation. “The role of SCAC is simply advisory while the PSC plays the role of recruitment. We are yet to be told why this aspect was overlooked,” said our source.

The agency has since hired the services of JKUAT Enterprises Limited to offer consultancy services regarding the recruitment of various technical and professional positions.
Issues have also been raised as to why the management, under CEO Terry Ramadhani (pictured), acted on the recommendations of the former board which was declared null and void by the High Court.

Interestingly, Ramadhani was a member of the former board. She said that the action was taken to reduce the agency’s excessive wage bill in the wake of the Covid-19 scandal, which occurred two years ago.
In her report, Auditor General Nancy Gathungu joined the discussion as well, noting that Kemsa had 912 personnel compared to the 341 that had been permitted for the year ended June 2022
