“I have noted with concern the acrimonious exchanges between
the Salaries and Remuneration Commission and Parliament. While acknowledging
the independence of our Parliament, the Constitution explicitly mandates the
Salaries and Remuneration Commission to set and review the salaries of all
state officers.
It is the expectation of the people of Kenya that independent constitutional institutions including Parliament must respect the institutional arrangements and division of mandates in our Constitution.
This continuing paralysis is not in the national interest and it is imperative that this matter be brought to an appropriate and sustainable conclusion within the law.
I therefore urge Parliament to engage the Salaries and Remuneration Commission in a constructive manner with a view to resolving this matter.
For the avoidance of doubt, all state officers in the Executive will continue to abide by the determination of the Salaries and Remuneration Commission.”

The question of the income of civil servants has always been topical in all countries of the world. Very interesting against this background is the news that Kenyans online believe Uhuru's silk shirts are indirectly connected to his down to earth appearances https://tuko.co.ke/200252-kenyans-believe-president-uhuru-always-wears-these-cloths-when-going-to-meet-poor-people.html which refers to the attitude of ordinary citizens to the clothes of the President, in particular his silk shirts. What do you think about this?
