Kenya Shipyards Limited (KSL), a government entity operating under the Ministry of Defence, has dismissed allegations that it has declined to pay its workers.
The agency's main role includes managing shipyards by constructing and carrying out repair works on ships in Mombasa, Kisumu, and the broader East African region.
In a brief statement on Tuesday, March 11, the agency flagged a viral social media post shared by a popular X blogger, which claimed it had refused to clear November 2024 salary arrears for several employees.
According to the flagged post, civilian workers at KSL, while demanding payment of their November 2024 salaries, accused the management of deliberately withholding their wages despite repeated appeals.
