What you need to know:

  • The revenue officers were accused of failing to meet their targets by the former county administration under Governor Wycliffe Oparanya.
  • The revenue officers filed their appeals before the Public Service Commission, which on December 5, 2022 directed that the revenue officers should be reinstated to their former positions.

The Kakamega County government has finally reinstated 47 revenue officers dismissed three years ago and agreed to pay them outstanding salaries amounting to Sh70 million.

The affected officers had successfully challenged the decision by the county government to terminate their services unfairly in August 2019.
