Speaker of Parliament Jacob Oboth Oboth has announced a document validation exercise targeting all employees of Parliament, from the Clerk to the gatemen, starting Monday, October 19, 2026.
Oboth said the exercise would cover everyone drawing a salary as a Parliament employee, including staff attached to the Office of the Speaker.
He said the exercise would be conducted with assistance from the Head of Public Service, although he did not provide further details about the documents to be examined or how long the exercise would take.
The validation exercise is expected to cover all categories of Parliament staff, with no employee exempted based on their position or department.
