NAIROBI, Kenya, Oct 27- Kenya Defense Forces recruitment will now be held on November 27.
The recruitment had been scheduled to start On October 27 but it was postponed following concerns from Members of Parliament who questioned fairness in countrywide distribution due to the centres where it was set to take place.
“The Kenya Defense Forces wishes to notify all Kenyans that the recruitment exercise earlier postponed has been rescheduled to take place from November 27 to December 16 2019,” said a statement from KDF headquarters, Those candidates who had applied MUST reapply afresh.”
Recruitment of General Service Officers, Cadets, Specialist Officers, Tradesmen and Tradeswomen will be through applications to the Defense headquarters.
Enrollment of General Duty Officers and Defense Forces Constables will be done by KDF teams at the sub-county level.
MPs objected to the idea of county recruitment centers, arguing that the process should have started at the ward level. The exercise was earlier scheduled to take place in 47 centres across the 47 counties in the country.
