In a significant crackdown on job fraud, four suspects have been arrested in connection with a Teachers Service Commission (TSC) recruitment scam that has cost unemployed teachers over Ksh40 million. The fraudsters enticed job seekers with fake employment letters, taking advantage of an upcoming massive teacher recruitment drive.

• Four suspects, including a TSC Director, a former politician, and two teachers, were arrested in Bomet County.
• Victims lost over Ksh40 million after being promised permanent and pensionable jobs with the TSC for a fee.
• The scam operated across multiple counties, including Bomet, Kericho, Narok, Kisii, and Nyamira, with further arrests anticipated by the DCI.
