The petitioner accused the Epra boss of irregular issuance of licences and appointments that had failed to ‘reflect the face of Kenya’ with close to 80 percent of his recruits reportedly from one community.
Uncertainty continues to surround the fate of the top office at the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority as the term of its current Director-General Pavel Oimeke ends this week.
There has not been any communication on whether his tenure ending this Friday will be renewed or a new appointee will take over the office he has occupied since 2017.
