Kenya: A court in Nairobi has reinstated Jacob Omondi Guma as a production manager for the East African Portland Cement Company (EAPCC). It follows the company’s decision to appoint Japheth Ombogo to the position, according to the Business Daily newspaper. The judge annulled the company’s decision on the grounds that it was marked by irregularities and may have been ‘malicious.’ The court ruled that Guma may stay in post until his three-year contract ends in September 2022 unless otherwise lawfully terminated. He was removed from the role in November 2019 after serving for just two months. The cement producer denies the allegations and says it removed him from the post due a lack of qualifications.
