MCAs complete ritual
to approve nominees
By Anchor Reporter
Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) have today conducted a vetting exercise for various nominees for the position of The Chairperson, County Public Service Board (CPSB), a Member of the County Public Service Board (CPSB) and Chief Officers of various Departments

It is hoped that due diligence was carried out by the various committees that carried out the vetting.
There are valid fears that the assembly teams are merely rubber stamping appointees from the executive are without scrutinising their documents.
During today's vetting, the assembly Committee for trade and investment vetted Ms Zipporah Kavata Mutunga to replace the current Chief Officer for the docket who was found to have used a fake University of Nairobi degree to secure the job.
Neither the committee nor the assembly have offered any explanation why this anomaly escaped their attention. Another committee also approved another Chief Officer- Mr Isika- who has an active corruption case with his father.
The Anchor was unable to listen through the vetting process to understand what entails the vetting process.
Those vetted today are:
1. Albanus Paul Mutisya - Chairperson, County Public Service Board (CPSB)
2. Marleen Misco Mwanika - Member, County Public Service Board (CPSB)
