Members of the panel include Arthur Osiya, Jane Joram, Nura Mohammed, Sylvester Ngei Kiini, Ruth Wambeti Ruraa, Nancy Oundo Dalla, and Elizabeth Chesang.
The panel was tasked with shortlisting qualified applicants, conducting interviews, and recommending suitable nominees to the President for nomination.
The PSC chairperson nominee will then be vetted by the National Assembly and appointed if approved.
