Defense Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale on Wednesday night revealed that the Ministry of Defense has sent out SMS reminders to all Kenyans, warning members of the public not to fall victim to fraudsters during its recruitment exercise slated for next week.
Speaking on Citizen TV’s JK Live, SC Duale also noted his ministry has issued a stern warning to officers taking part in the countrywide recruitment of Kenya Defence Officers to observe transparency and avoid corrupt activities.
”As we prepare to kick off the enrollment of new entrants into the KDF from next week, we have sent reminders via SMS and other communication platforms to all Kenyans, as a cautionary measure against falling for fraudsters and charlatans masquerading as recruiting officers,” the Defence CS said.
”In the spirit of meritocracy, we have given stern warning to our officers taking part in countrywide field event to observe utmost transparency and treat all candidates indiscriminately during the process. Anyone, officers, guardians or the candidates themselves, who’ll be found breaking the law will be dismissed forthwith and made to face the full wrath of the law,” he added.
The CS assured participants of the exercise which is the first under the Ruto administration will be highly transparent.
