West Pokot Governor John Lonyangapuo has issued a directive to his workers to dress properly.
While addressing the more than 3,000 county workers in Kapenguria on Saturday, Lonyangapuo said that some of his staff dressed so indecently that it was impossible to differenciate between them and criminals.
“Every man must be in a tie from 8am to 5pm. The same applies to drivers because they are the face of their bosses.
"Workers can easily be mistaken for criminals and arrested. We want you to be neat,” he said
“Women employees should put on ‘acceptable’ attire. Even my driver Jacob is not in a tie yet he should lead by example,” he added.
