President William Ruto has appointed a six-member choice panel. This panel is for the recruitment of nominees for the Independent Police Oversight Authority (IPOA).
The panel includes individuals from various government bodies. These bodies include the Executive Office of the President, Judicial Service Commission, and Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission, among others.
Ruto urged qualified Kenyans to apply for positions in these commissions and offices once invitations are extended.
The outgoing commissioners of four key commissions have handed over their exit reports to President Ruto. These commissions include the Salaries and Payment Commission and the Gender and Equality Commission.
Their terms are set to expire in September. The recruitment process for their successors is underway. Constitutional provisions dictate a non-renewable term of six years for holders of such positions.
The choice process involves various nominating bodies, including political parties and government commissions.
Ruto encouraged applications from qualified individuals. He also called on Kenyans to send memoranda on the suitability of the candidates shortlisted by the choice panels.
The recruitment process for these commissions is crucial for ensuring effective governance and oversight. It is particularly important in key areas like police conduct, gender equality, and administrative justice.
