Kenya just swore in Michael Thoya as a commissioner for the agency that decides what government workers get paid. His brother happens to be the Senate Speaker, and Chief Justice Martha Koome handled the ceremony while reminding everyone that the job involves keeping the wage bill under control and making sure public sector pay stays competitive.
President William Ruto tapped Thoya for a six-year term running the Salaries and Remuneration Commission alongside 12 other members. The guy used to represent Magarini Constituency in parliament until he lost his seat a few years back, and he brings an engineering background to the gig that oversees compensation for state officers across the country.
