President Uhuru Kenyatta on Thursday offered the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) crucial backing in its war with MPs, setting the stage for a bruising battle between Parliament and the Executive.
Mr Kenyatta, who was speaking at Catholic University, Nairobi, asked the MPs-elect to accept the new pay scales for the 12th Parliament, warning them that the quest for higher salaries is the reason voters rejected most members of the 11th Parliament at the recent polls.
