Kenya: The High Court has opposed the appointment of Bruno Oguda Obodha as the managing director of East African Portland Cement (EAPCC). The court took action following a petition in late December 2024 that argued that the selection process was opaque and not accountable to the public, according to the Nation newspaper. Oguda was chosen for the role by the country’s president William Ruto. However the role of the Public Service Commission in the appointment process has been questioned by the court. The vacancy for managing director post at EAPCC was announced in October 2024.
