Public Service Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria has issued a schedule outlining the proposed distribution of the recruits per ward.
Kuria called on county leaders and stakeholders to ensure the exercise was fair and transparent.
“Since I have published the number of NYS slots for each of our 1,450 wards, it is up to you to monitor and ensure that the exercise that kicks off tomorrow is fair and transparent, and your wards get their rightful share. It is time to fix this country once and for all. The Price of Freedom is Vigilance,” he said.
He stressed the need to comply with the recruitment programme outlining the distribution of the NYS recruits per ward.
