The newly elected employee representatives to the Board of Trustees of the Kenya Broadcasting Corporation pension scheme have called on the KBC Board of Management to approve the sale of prime land owned by the corporation to raise funds for long-overdue pension payments.
Speaking at Broadcasting House in Nairobi shortly after being declared winners to serve for a three-year term, Graham Kirwa, Martin King’asia and Silas Kiragu committed to push for the release of 3.27 billion shillings owed to the scheme by Kenya Broadcasting Corporation.
The trustees noted the prolonged delays in pension payments and said they would push for swift action to resolve the issue.
To show accountability, they pledged to report back to members progress after a one year period.
The trio further urged that previously passed resolutions be ratified without delay, to enable the pension scheme to function optimally.
The team expressed gratitude to KBC pension scheme members for smooth elections that saw 94% voter turnout.
