The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) interviewed academic failures for revenue service assistant positions it filled last year, in what has exposed more weaknesses in the exercise that has since been quashed by the High Court for being unconstitutional.
This is according to new revelations by Auditor-General Nancy Gathungu showing that, while the minimum requirement for the revenue service assistants (RSAs) was a D+ in the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE), the KRA still admitted persons who scored below D+ for at least two initial rounds of interviews.
