The Public Service Commission (PSC) is on the spot for hiring retirees as management analysts on nearly half a million pay, as the role of the five individuals employed on short-term contracts is called into question.

A new audit reveals that the PSC employed the retirees under local agreement terms between March 2023 and September 2024, ending up paying them Sh25.7 million.
