At least five more former public officers joined the exclusive club of retirees with a monthly package of more than Sh1 million, setting up the taxpayer to shoulder more burden despite the government push to cut the wage bill.

Former Senate Speaker Ekwee Ethuro and his National Assembly counterpart Kenneth Marende are among the latest beneficiaries of the more than Sh1 million-a-month pension payout.
