KAA clarifies advertisement of over 600 jobs
The Kenya Airport Authority (KAA) has denied putting up advertisement of over 600 jobs in its various departments
The Kenya Airport Authority (KAA) has denied putting up advertisement of over 600 jobs in its various departments.
A flyer purportedly from the agency went round announcing vacancies in over 20 areas; the vacancies included cleaners, drivers, air hostesses and engineers, among others.
Those interested in the posts were asked to channel their applications to a suspicious email address, which did not bear any indentation from the KAA.
The poster went viral, with a likelihood that some members of the public had responded with applications, putting themselves on the risk of being scammed.
However, KAA board chairman Caleb Kositany flagged the poster as a fake, cautioning the public against falling prey to the purveyors’ motives.
Cases of fraudsters using state agencies and parastatals to advance their scams have been on the rise in the past.
In February, the Public Service Commission (PSC) issued a warning to the public about fraudulent activities involving individuals and groups falsely promising jobs and promotions within the public service.

PSC emphasised that all public service recruitments and promotions are conducted transparently, merit-based, and competitively.
The commission clarified that the PSC does not charge any fees for job applications, shortlisting, interviews or appointments.
PSC said it remains committed to upholding integrity, noting that it will continue working with investigative agencies to ensure those engaging in fraudulent activities face the law.
