The recent military recruitment should be revoked over bribery and corruption and a fresh 'clean' one carried out, a number of senators have said. They claimed last month’s recruitment was marred by corruption and bribery claims whereby the highest bidders — bribe givers—landed slots. Last month, the Kenya Defence Forces carried out nationwide recruitment of officers for specialist officers, general duty, tradesmen/women and constables. A number of people were arrested attempting to bribe KDF recruitment officers. On February 10, two people were arrested with over Sh500,000 trying to bribe the recruitment officers.
