“We have decided the process to pay back. The truth of the matter we did not defraud anyone. Since we are genuine people, we will pay all those who are requesting to paid back,” a statement from First Choice partly reads.
Jepchirchir said the firm had connected more than 7,000 Kenyans to various jobs abroad in four years of operation.
On July 1 this year, Jepchirchir was spotted dining with top government officials during the launch of ‘Gava Mkononi’, an initiative aimed at digitising 5,000 government services.
During the launch, Foreign Affairs CS Alfred Mutua revealed his ministry’s initiative dubbed ‘Kazi Majuu’, where he explained that Kenyans looking for opportunities abroad would log in to the e-Citizen portal and find available opportunities.
