The Salaries and Remuneration Commission has been accused of trying to set up different cadres of public servants by increasing salaries and allowances of the President and top officers while slashing that of Members of the County Assembly.

Nandi Senator Samson Cherargei said the SRC has put the President and MPs on a collision course with citizens who believe they had sought a salary increment which they had not and that it was the MCAs who deserve an increment.
