Title: KPMG Kenya Website...

Could anybody post a working link to KPMG (Kenya) so I can look at the Senior Management of that organization and be convinced it reflects the diversity and face of Kenya? I have checked a good number of their branches in other countries and they provide that information. Kenya seems to be an exception.

No.

Let's call a spade a spade, shall we?

This has nothing to do with being convinced whether KPMG reflects the face of Kenya or not.

This has everything to do with looking for another reason to continue spreading tribalist propaganda against another tribe.

Ever hear of Radio Télévision Libre des Mille Collines?

They did the exact same thing "by demonising the Tutsi and encouraging hate".

You're taking the first wobbly steps from your high tower.

KPMG is private.  What does the law say about diversity in such firms?

Like I said below, any company can choose to employ people from one village or clan exclusively.  However whenever that company seeks a public job and especially one as sensitive as auditing IEBC Voter Register, the company's employment policies come in to focus.

Now you may be aware that the opposition has already accused KPMG of being "user friendly". This does not portend well for the exercise's integrity.

It's heavily involved with Republicans and corruption. eg. scandal:

“HAND BACK £2 MILLION”, LIBERAL DEMOCRATS TELL KPMG AFTER STEPPING HILL FAILURE

...

The approach KPMG has taken at Stepping Hill has been amateurish at best, in my opinion,” Laura said. “We want this wasted money repaid and we want to know how KPMG came to be making these decisions for our hospital in the first place.”

Problem is they have no experience in Kenya, let alone auditing voter registrations. Disaster waiting to happen.

The KPMG tax shelter fraud scandal involves allegedly illegal U.S. tax shelters by KPMG that were exposed beginning in 2003. In early 2005, the United States member firm of KPMG International, KPMG LLP, was accused by the United States Department of Justice of fraud in marketing abusive tax shelters.

That is one of the many issues raised by the opposition and rubbished by Jubilee automatically as usual.

The process is sensitive and they needed to be transparent about the recruitment of an auditor.

Plus how do you audit a document that is contaminated? There is doubt about the contents of the register. There are multiple registers where the law requires that it be one. The IEBC has not clearly stated or identified one register. So which one is KPMG auditing?

What constitutes auditing? Is it simply looking at the names? Perhaps comparing with ID card register? What if the IDs care fake?

There are many tough questions to be answered.

The bottom line is that the process was negotiated and its implementation must be credible and non confrontational. The IEBC commissioners must go home. In the least three of them should resign leaving behind the number required by law. I think Isaack Hassan should be the first to go.
